A Long Abandoned Fire

Kisses dance like fire 
Upon my lovers soul 
Her whispers on my neck 
Seek to regain control 

Our curves are filled 
By equal parts 
One part passion 
One part heart 

Fingers stranded 
Where lovers dare 
Lips locked 
In scarlet hair 

Kindled by hopes 
Of loves desire 
We linger on slopes 
Engulfed by fire 

Now we lie face to face 
And side by side 
Quenched and satiated 
From the well of 
A long abandoned fire
