A WILDFIRE

With my heart in my throat
I stepped out into the darkness
I saw you in front of me
But I thought that this was a dream

My mind betrayed me
And I couldn’t think
As I was pulled into you

Your hands are a wildfire
And I burn for your touch

You’re a raging river’s waterfall
And as I get closer to the drop-off
I let go of everything…
And drown in you

Your voice is an elegant symphony
Singing its way into my soul
And even though your song speaks no words
It says enough to make me cry

With my heart in your hands
I asked you to love me forever
You saw blood rush to my cheeks
But you couldn’t remember…
What you had said
