Eternal Flame

His
                                                       fiery
                                                  eyes exude
                                               burning ember
                                             killing winter chill;
                                         His heart a ball of fire
                                        rolling on her fingertips;
                                     Ascending from dark labyrinth~
                                     Eternal flame ~ her  sanctuary. 

                               Your eyes still as fiery as wild fires~
                                  melting everything you gaze on
                                       like my poor algific heart
                                          slowly reviving beats
                                           killing your last heat
                                                until your eyes
                                                 turn placid 
                                                     again
                                                      once.
