Fire
Listen….
Do you hear it?
Look…..
Do you see it?
Stop…..
Do you feel it?
This fire is so warm
It keeps me calm
While I wait…
This fire protects me
From the pain
That seems to be my fate…..
You will come,
Won’t you?
Before I succumb….
To the unknown
Of the wild
From being left alone….
Listen….
Do you hear it?
Look…..
Do you see it?
Stop…..
Do you feel it?
How cold
Now the fire is
I hear footsteps on the ground…
Have you finally come
to find me?
Will I no longer be alone?...
With the wind in the trees
Movement comes and goes
My mind is playing tricks on me…..
From the darkness in behind
I feel you coming close
Our hearts have realigned….
Listen….
Do you hear it?
Look…..
Do you see it?
Stop…..
Do you feel it?
My lover has returned
From his never ending fight
His love unturned….
Embraced by his arm
His hand in mine
I am finally feeling warm…
Together we will tame
The wild that surrounds
Together never is the same….
We fight as one
Together not apart
Our new life has begun….
