Poem
Passion and love By Michelle Morris 10/04/2022 Passion and love so often confused Only time reveals the roads we choose... Oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh... Sparks with lovers can pull you down Sparks with lovers is how you drown No one can touch you now No one can save you now You took a sip from the Devil's cup Inhibitions dropping with your clothes The spark between old lovers Never entirely goes away Playing with fire is always dangerous Unless you're a Phoenix rising again Put down your box of matches The oxygen always gets eaten first Moving around the stage like a singer Putting on a very big show You always underestimated the danger Of throwing all your cards in the air Round and round, round and round Getting dizzy, getting fuzzy Seeing double, seeing trouble Back away, back away On and on, don't you know You're in danger, what's the hurry Get your feet back on the ground Pull the stars back into you You keep drinking from the Devil's bottle Losing yourself with each and every sip You chase that enticing little spark As though it will light your soul Playing with fire is a pastime That you focus with intention You keep hoarding all those matches Like conflagration will save your life Moving around your hotel room You are dancing with your Angels Getting closer to the edge Remember heights are bad for you Round and round, round and round Getting dizzy, getting fuzzy Seeing double, seeing trouble Back away, back away On and on, don't you know You're in danger, what's the hurry Get your feet back on the ground Pull the stars back into you Round and round, round and round You're not making any headway What's your game, what's your aim Flying high, flying high On and on, don't you know You are floating to the edge Untethered from this earth You're heading out to the stars Close your eyes, feel the rush Look on down, see the clouds You're out there in the Universe And no one can touch you now Yeah, no one can touch you now Sparks with lovers will pull you down Sparks with lovers, how you drowned Yeah, no one can save you now Passion and love so often confused Only time reveals the roads we choose... Oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh... © Michelle Morris, 2022
