The Fire In the Distance

Who knew the fires could burn so hot all-embracing and consuming rejuvenating the heart with a newfound love born to be alive with you forever and no other, pure and unconditional as the entire world slips away. New life rises feelings of emotional tenderness to shiver the soul with chills and perspiration joy shared so profusely it drowns out the self so that all else fades to oblivion between the two, steadfast and genuine living without would be unfathomable. How true is this love how long-lasting how pervasive, invasive, abrasive mysterious and delirious like nothing ever felt before true love like true lies whispering can this be real, everlasting, forever? Only the lovers bound and entwined in the dream within its hidden secrets bound tight will ever know as they are drawn in the heat and the fires in the distance of time. for Chantelle Anne Cooke True Love contest 1/24/20

DM, You sing well of passion's flames. Suppose we take your fire to an oasis with a breeze in sunset's balm. You bring dates and pomegranate, I'll bring bongos and one or two swayin' palms. -Richard
