The Flame of Passion

the flame of passion the candle flickers shadows sway on the wall the dim glow highlights you silhouette you walk toward me and I see your smile I feel warm as you reach for my hand your gentle gasp sends chills down my spine you lead me away into your loving arms together we become one dropping our regrets like tattered clothes stripped of our sin we embrace face to face everything else disappears in the dark off to ecstasy we both slowly embark the candle flickers your eyes glow with satisfying pain I sigh you call out my name I hold on with all of my might asking is everthying all right the candle flickers a tear drop falls you smile and say it is now By: Jeremy Siedlecki
