DESIRE

Don’t touch it,

It’s hot they say.

I want to touch you, 

See you, 

Feel you.

The flame grows bigger,

Don’t play with fire they say,

But you’re enticing,

I can’t help myself.

We’re getting closer,

I can feel the warmth grow, 

As the flame flickers through my eyes.

Don’t touch it they say,

But I’m mesmerized,

One step closer,

That smoky smell,

It’s so familiar.

I want to be wrapped in the fire all night,

As I feel it’s blaze through my soul,

I want it to hold me tight, and never let go.

Don’t touch it they say, it’ll burn, 

But when it comes to our blazing fire,

Oh my love, when will we learn.
