still

there's talk that you could be
the most worthy adversary
or at least the one who might
give me a run for my money
some have said it's possible
you could end the world with me
quiet as we ever are
speaking easy over scars
as if maybe 
time was at
an end
but she's still got love for me
my toughest sweetest adversary
the one who stayed with all her might
wrote her heart without my knowledge
some have said it's possible
the world will end with her and me
raging as we ever are
sleeves rolled up from brand new scars
daring all we ever are
to flare up powered jointly
as if maybe
timing was
a friend
as if maybe 
time was at
an end
