Misspent Time

We are but bones and skin

Immortalised by sin 

We are but words and dreams 

We did not dare begin 

We are a thirst unquenched 

And yet in passion drenched 

We are a tale ungleaned 

Yet, still a loss... a wrench  

We are but misspent time 

A melody divine

A mirage unredeemed 

You’re not... were never... mine
