Hunger

desire becomes the heart's need passion it breathes hungering in embers flames sparking words relights ablaze burning red from the mirror of one's soul touching smiles happiness a dream forever beautiful igniting in the deep embers burning wild feelings food of love melting softness eternal desire a second heartbeat feeding the fire deep burning flames a temperature rises burning red passion relights a single rose blooms in these ashes

Just like roses, our hearts need the warmth of love to help them grow! We hunger for love like we hunger for air and water, it's something we can't live without...A deeply expressive and beautiful poem. Nicely written! I really enjoyed reading this one!
