Flames

Sometimes even flames burn out even though the desire still shines bright

love for the flame is so great,

my heart melts for him ’til the dusk of day.

The night crushes when he’s away,

It hurts, breaks ’til day’s dawn.

His beauty is great,

Wondering mind ’til he sees,

crying is all I do,

While waiting for the moment, for him to say “I’m sorry.”

Waiting for the day he wakes up,

Waiting for his flame to burn as hot as mine,

Waiting for one day I can let him go,

So he can come back to me,

Not have such a hold on me,

So I don’t smother out the flame.
