Fairy Dust

We were so willing to see each other
If only to sit in silence and stare
Deeply into each others' eyes,
Your multi-faceted gaze never wavering.
And now it seems so one-sided.

I don't know what I've done this time,
And I don't know how to fix it, or even if I can.
All I know is that I feel almost alone
And it seems like you're not affected.

I'm afraid we are losing what we have.
Afraid it's starting to slip away.
And that you don't want to catch it.

It's beginning to become more of a lust
And less of a love.

Our fairy dust has finally disappeared.
