Aries of Avidity

When I gaze deeply into your heart, I see my own strength staring back I see that I am worthy Hugged in the warmth of its beat I am attracted to your integrity To your passionate journey Of your flight to the stars Do you know...that it is A fire's dream to become an inferno? Just as you are— My flames long to be There is an absence of fear In every step you tread I can feel that you have walked beyond Your darkest, murkiest hour And your faith has not been crushed You have risen above the darkness And you continue to rise in light You have been so alone, You have been the hero for yourself You value strong hearts and minds And you will never settle for less To be in your space Is to taste the earth's finest flavor To be in your space Is to master genuine laughter And meaningful tears To be in your space is to Wrestle with the magic of truth With a healthy zest for movement And a promising thirst for growth I want to be in your space Till there is no space in-between For you and I see That your spirit is my fire's need And my joy is your soul's dream When I gaze deeply into your heart, I remember why we suffer, And I rejoice, For you lead me to the stars of night To the gracious lights in the sky That show us the weight of our mortality And our ascending hope beyond Do you know…that it is A fire's dream to become an inferno? Just as you are— Aries of Avidity, My flames long to be July 25, 2018

"Do you know...that it is A fire's dream to become an inferno? Just as you are— My flames long to be," what beauty in those words Laura.
