After parting

When the fire has died down
and the heat has consumed us,
and all that's left is smoke and ashes,
We will realise how the time played us for fools.

For we don't recognize today
what we are going to lose tomorrow.

Run away.
Pack your precious possessions and leave now
The storm has risen in my heart
And it will destroy us both.
Leave now, as fast as you can.

Because we never protect today
what we might lose tomorrow.
