When Passion Dies

Where do you turn when the passion dies?
Sifting through the ashes of truths and lies?

When your relationships take a shift?
Excitement and lust both blown adrift?

What do you do when it’s not the same?
When you feel you are rapidly losing the game?

Do you turn to drink to numb the pain?
Denying and hiding in attempts to remain sane?

When the one you once called your precious muse?
Now sparks even less than a broken fuse?

When some days the sadness bites so deep?
And comes out as anger that weeps and seeps?

Where do you turn when the passion dies?
When what was loved you now despise?
