We're like coal in a fireplace
A gentle glow
A warmth between us
That emanates around us.
Every once in a while
There's a spark
Triggered by a look
A Casual graze of skin
Or a voice modulation
Wafting across the room.
A few times there's been a flame
Gently building
As we chat and share stories
Interspersed
With a comfortable silence.
What's stopping the fire
From bursting through?
Are we being too cautious?
Have we become that jaded?
Is this just a passing flame?
Do you want to join me
Fuel the fire,
Get it to roar and hiss,
Light up the darkness
That stops us,
Consume us,
And make us whole again?
