Thoughts..because of the terrorism attacks taking place around the world…Be safe.


The warmth was no more

Much like the black char of

An empty fireplace, barren

Of fire, a flame diminished

The heat, no longer, a spark

Doused by many, rekindled

By none, who knew not why

Nor how, to stoke the flames

Repair the resilience, before

Humanity, is but a pile of ashes

Sparks, of rhythmic fires, fly

Brightly burns and lights the sky

She is magic, a powerful flame

The moonlit night, is her domain

Barren lands lay wasted where

She walks upon, without a care

And leaves her mark, this earth to claim

A fiery being, of unearthly fame

You complete me, your fire to my ice

The heat, to melt, my inner vice

Of wanting you, my very own

That I shall never let bemoan

Just chase away my frozen heart

Watch me, as I fall apart

Into your hands, I fade to mist

With flames of love, I have been kissed

Thoughts that carry moments

Left lingering in the dark

Cold and ever wandering

Extinguished, lose their spark

Yet, this fire burns inside me

Chars the paper, where I lay

The words my soul has written

With the flames of yesterday

Like a moth to a flame

I am drawn to you

Knowing if I get too close

You will burn me

Yet I fly ever closer

Unafraid to feel the fire
