Listen to poem:

eternal pyre

You've meant so deeply much; within my desire If I could present a world or build an empire It would be so easy to secretly conspire In a way that you would not find hard to admire Happiness for me; sought just nurturing your purist fire You see my genuine intentions; carrying us higher We are beyond me; so far past what I wantingly require Viewing you satisfied; fuels me to wondrously aspire A devotion of which I will sleeplessly never overtire My differing notion; I'm just resolved; to her eternal pyre

Deep and devoted, 'eternal pyre' - that means no dissolving! I can relate to how someone's desire means so much to you. :)

Life is incredibly short, to enjoy making someone happy and sharing in a friendship as a result of mutual happiness, makes every day seem a little bit better. I wake up aspiring every day to live life with love in my heart, love for Humanity, but most of all love for the people that let me in. "eternal pyre" well let's just say Eternal Flame didn't rhyme quite as nicely ;) A.S.
