Fire

Do not depart from each other in this life
Meet again at the fire
Come together

placing your hand into another's
energy rips through thousands of years
rushing in the blood
as waves rise and fall
breathing soft sands of the shore

smoke rises above
covers below
until it is no more

what remains
you will know to be love
