Embers Still Burn

There is reason to fall in love so insanely.
There is more reason to end this insane love.
However, my heart will not adjust to missing you.
     Where frozen embers still burn, I must analyze why our relationship is gone.

We met under a spiritual moon and we bathed in the sun.
Our passion went afire and we love liked never before.
Something put a wedge between us and we were no longer in love.
Nevertheless, our lust overcame this once more.
     So why are we not together, love?

Where frozen embers still burn, we tranquil.
Our spirits seeks memories of our pass passion.
Stagnant our minds become but I am just referring to me.
     You are so far away how I know that you think of me.

Moribund I must not be.
     I thrive for new intimacy!

You are right Verlena, do not deny or deprive youself of rich heart, but do not shy from embracing your true love. There is a beautiful resolve in this poem of hungry heart. Gosh, love can seem so irrational! J.A.B.
