"blaze"


Water drowns the maiden and frees the lover,
To touch scorching fire and burn in passion anew.
Dost thou desire to melt in beauty's rapturous fire
And become vulnerable to her unknown banquet of charms?
O! sweet thirst doth reside in his feverish lips
As they drink from her cup of hypnotic addiction.
Whilst winds breathe so do her fortunes open wide,
Intoxicating fire swirls mind into submission
Willingly obedient by subtle manipulation.
Slowly burning planned quick of thoughts
Love's fire heats water, water cools not love,
Furious fire feeds on anxious unfed hunger as
Drowned desire pulls passion beneath heated pool
Undulating currents blaze as reborn love swells
Devouring
Devouring time
Devouring nature's changing course
Liquid lovers subsequently scorch and burn
Evanescing into one another's fiery flesh.
