Dust to Dust

It's small talk at 1 A.M.
That they've been reduced to.
From ember to fire to ash
Ashes scattering in the wind

And she realizes these words are worthless
That nothing is making sense
Disappointed, she looks inside herself
And she realizes
Frightened -
Something within her has died
No longer the hopeless romantic
