A flame

Before she could catch her breath...
he walked far away into the sunset.
His fragrance still lingering in the air...
now a whiff of memories from every breath.

Unsure of what his parting words meant...
Her voice stymied by lack of her own.
May be He was kind to just let her go...
or heartless as an unforgiving stone.

Innumerable nights all went by silent...
hiding away all those thoughts violent.
Keeping faith she did not relent...
she's​ unfazed by what absence meant.

A heart with​ only good things to pray...
still has a flame she can't give away.
