Wildfire Hearts

It is like you are

A dry branch being consumed

By a forest fire

You know, when she wants

steak. You don't eat meat, but you 

still abduct a cow.

Beneath my face remains

Ghosts as dancers and flower crowns

I'd die for her, then bloom.

Passion is a Virus

Follow your rapture,

Melting in sanctuary.

Mania in flame.

Mad for empathy,

Emotional devotion.

Lost among closeness.

One...

Beyond mating call

One to another gives all

Two souls be that One
