Nicola Borasinski - Burn Out Or Fade Away

2014-06-16 7

Burn out or fade away?
Cry or never waver?
Remain loyal or stray?
Desperado or saviour?

Moved by passion
Or ruled by reason?
Unwavering devotion
Or constant deviation?

Cascading waterfall
Or trickling stream?
An unfulfilled reality
Or a tainted dream?

Extremely volatile lust
Or unattainable love?
A majestic vulture
Or broken winged dove?

To make an impact
Or live forever in shadow?
A definite goodbye
Or an unsentimental hello?

Excruciating brightness
Or never ending dark?
An unavoidable end
Or faltering start?
