Allie (to a past flame)

Love is an ally

trapped in a lie

and this is the cause----

of my heart's hot sigh

The current that powers the light

Gives the heart its beat slight

and in your eyes I saw---------

the things that make me right

note: I have a feeling it's a little obsolete and prosaic but I am eager for critique!
