Passion embarks on drawn-out journey
it sputters
it hurries
it loses patience
and drops its remnants
forgot where he's from
erased the path from which he came
and with only himself to blame

Passion embraces its long-lost friend
the one who was always there
the one that will remain until the end
eternity laughs in his face
and love comes around
to fill his place
father time yawns and lays down to rest
passion came and went
leaving love the only one left

Liked this very much

I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man.

You have a keen sense for words, and if you've already figured out that loves lasts long after passion, you are ahead of many. KJ

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

I really like this, especially the ending:
father time yawns and lays down to rest
passion came and went
leaving love the only one left
Very nice
