The Burn Intensity

Is it acceptable to blaze so fervently?
Aflame with longing for the unattainable
To crave melting in their embrace
An emotion beyond understanding

Persistently yearning for their words
To partake in the exchange of energies
Uncover the details of their day
And unravel the threads of their plans

To yearn for a replay of our last encounter
Reliving the moments of entwined lips
Bodies swaying to a well-known cadence

This sensation ensnares me
Every attempt to escape is futile
You draw me back, compelling me to ask:
Is it permissible to burn with such intensity?
