What my love is like...

My love is like a fire
I burn in its flame.
My love is like a fever
On a high, insane.

It flows like a river
Singing an endless song.
It pricks and aches
And breaks like a dried rose thorn.

It grows like a flower
In spring time, full bloom.
Its glows like the sun,
Which waits for the moon.

A fierce shade of heat
A summer wildfire
A storm in the night
So icy and dire.

It sets me pacing one moment
Plays a twisted hide and seek
Rigid and irrevocable
Miserably weak.

A fuming rage
Breaking free every cage
A silent whisper
The word of a sage.

It weaves like silk
Laced with love lust.
And breathes like iron
Aged with dust.

Echoing feeble tunes
Of hills and sand dunes
A nightingale’s welcome voice
My personal game of passion and choice.

It kills and thrives
Then soars and dives.
My love is like a rain
Rosy in strain

My love is like a fire,
So I be a moth
And immolate my soul
In its whimsical warmth.
