Life's Fire
How does one describe the beauty of love
Words are just not enough
It's an overpowering and divine emotion
Leaving us overwhelmed with lust
As hard as we try to avoid love's power
There's no escaping it's grip
Ultimately even the mightiest succumb
And into love's clutches they slip
There's only one cure, it's complete surrender
Or you'll always regret your choice
A missed opportunity will haunt you forever
To drink in it's passion and rejoice
Our existence and main reason for living
Is to satisfy this burning desire
To find that someone's who's meant for us only
Adding much fuel to life's fire
For Laura
