Left Behind - Ian Duquemin

Two birds broken found each other
Fell in love with one another
Mended, they became as one
And fled toward the rising sun
She the stronger flew ahead
Soared through clouds alone instead
Leaving him to fall behind
Without her, lost and blind
What was one, was two again
With separation came the pain
The same old feelings she once felt
Caused her heart to melt
She stopped and turned, then spilt a tear
Expecting him to reappear
She searched the lonely skies below
But lost him long ago
