Fire

Ebony and pallid

As weightless as sky

Yet as rigid as bone

Fractured, they be positioned within your wake

A defused memory

Of your confident glow

Opening with solitary incidental glow

A single minuscule modest glimmer

Leap to existence,

Consuming

Consuming

Consuming

Every in your conduit

Breathing or deceased

Feeble or not

So exceedingly ravenous

Greedily, it all disappears

Little crackles, pops, and hisses

Endeavors to converse

Frozen lexis raving with such a warmth

Sing your enthralling cry

Murmur it upon deaf ears

A naive who won’t comprehend

Merely individuals who yearn to listen

Can truly bask in your radiance

Control you…

Only they can control you…

Iron bows at your feet

Turning cherry with inadequacy at your ire

Foliage and paper alike

Disintegrate away into nonentity

Timber to relish, parchment a delicacy

Devour and recreate

Harnessed you can achieve countless tasks

Mar us, deduct all we possess

Yet, if we nourish you and nurse you properly

We accomplish splendor

A vase’s splendor

Twirling with opalesant radiance,

Let your colors fly

Dancing downward to congregate with the soil

Let loose amid the stars

Genuine Sapphire,

Generate the calmest facet

Curious Topaz,

To bite out and lash

Conjuring Ruby

Lighting the heart’s sentiment

Feel it…

Can’t you feel it?

Fill my veins with torrid elixir

Fill them with vivacity

Reach out to me

Let me capture you and don’t coil away

Lick my fingers

Be vigilant, don’t gnaw

Fill my soul with warmth

Like an infant I’ve been so nostalgic to stroke

To touch…

So I may perhaps comprehend…

A solitary contact is all it takes

Irrevocably, our ballet has ended

Yet I still embrace your kisses in my palm…

Black soot a keepsake

Smoke an indication

Of everyplace you have existed
