The Last Breath of the Flame

The clock, the watch, the phone all have eyes that watch from the view of 2 AM untamed Heart rates jumping like the heat of the flame Me plus You is a movie, what is the name Our love doesn't fit in the frame So, cameras get jealous of the panorama pane Real love never goes without pain that can be immense So, if you're hurt let patience play offense Slow dancing with your memories is a nostalgic essence Sweat dancing with the burning scent Wick burning with confidence Mirroring our silhouette, naked thoughts present tense My hands without your curves, a death sentence Each kiss turns a page of my sixth sense I don't need a third eye to see your imperfect contents Table this: beauty is born from cracks so use the hurt as accents She is priceless so keep your two cents Temptation is off limits but I climbed the fence The candle falls asleep to our aroma, hence The flame goes out, conclusion love making after an argument Sweet dreams enter in the tango of sheets, legs, hearts, rest swiftly to the comfort of her name My heart is tied to yours, no more games I've played tug of war and came out lame No more burns unless it's from the candle tamed p.s. this is what it feels like when peace kisses love...
