Consequence of Love
Jan 6, 2021
How flames that do illuminate
Are twisted by the fist of fate
They burn and scald the ones we love
As fierce smoke clouds bright skies above -
The flame of love’s ardent desire
Will smolder like a funeral pyre
The glow ablaze in lover’s eyes
Can burn said souls to their demise.
Love with an open heart — please do
And, passion paints a pretty hue-
But fire’s fire and fire burns
So die, for love, these are its terms.
