Hearts on Fire

Love inspires
the heart’s desires
for the never ending search
of the ancient fire
that burns within each soul.

Combustion starts
whenever two hearts
are pulled by strings,
tied together
till the rhythmic beat is one.

As time goes by
the flames grow high
to warm the heart and free the tongue
to release the words
that pour out like steam into your ear.

The fire will burn
and the heart will not yearn
for the cold, hard stone
it had been.

Instead, in it’s place
is a flame with your face
as the source of fuel
to keep our love alive.
