it burns and bites.
it licks with flaming tongues,
and engulfs you in its fiery embrace.
it sears your tortured flesh
bringing tears to your stinging eyes.

it cradles you in its warmth.
it melts away the frost,
and keeps the chill from your soul.
it sets your heart aflutter
with it's blazing butterflies.

Be it soft and warm
or severely hot
let it mend or destroy
a damaged heart
bringing either happiness or pain
as it wishes

it burns with the passion
that we can only find
within the grasp of love.
