Loving Fire

Its Raskolnikov

Watch the red and yellow,

As they dance like the moment's made for them,

They dance so firm and fondly,

Together they rise,

Together they fly,

Together they die,

Won't you dance with me?

 

Watch the flames rise high,

Into the sky,

 

'Til the smoke fills our lungs,

I'll never leave your side,

 

Watch the flames,

In that loving fire,

It looks so fine,

And divine,

 

The colors,

They dance,

They roar, 

They singe,

I can take the burn,

Just don't share the flame,

 

Help me find the light,

Your love,

Your heat,

Help me find the fire,

So we can both dance,

Both back on our feet,

 

Right by the red and yellow, 

Let me hold you,

And we'll watch that loving fire, 

Or haven't I told you?

We can rise,

We can fly,

We can surpass the sky,

Or we can die,

 

Watch the red and yellow,

As they dance their lives away, 

Flying higher and higher,

Past all the rest, 

Would you dance with me like that?

Would you watch that loving fire?

Would you let me see too?

 

As the embers cool,

Our fire keeps raging,

Cause love is endless,

Love is fine,

Love is as divine,

As our time,

With that loving fire,

Would you be mine?

    Even if it hurts, huh? Sometimes there's no other choice. Hey, sometimes I think dying with the one you love wouldn't be a bad way to end it all. Not on purpose though, just in case the apocalypse happened. Good poem, good subject. Endearing love. Happy writing to you.

    • Its Raskolnikov

      Thank you, and from the looks of your page you are a very talented, refined poet. I hope to see more from you.

      • Nicholas Browning

        I dunno about all that, haha.Thanks though! Likewise my friend.

        Intriguing and different - good write

        • Its Raskolnikov

          Thanks, I wrote it awhile ago but copied it down here. I just wanted something simple vocabulary wise to give a more expressive feeling for once. I like a lot of what you've done too, especially "Work in Progress".

          I think this is your first poem here, so welcome!
          I like how you compare love to a flame, there is certainly a lot of similarities to the two. I also like your last stanza, the way you move from excitement to more longer lasting impressions.
          Very good poem, I would like to read more from you.

            Thanks, I'm beyond glad to be here! Will be writing tomorrow.

            I hope above all hope that Miss Jenna Edwards has been allowed to read this, because if I had been immortalized in verse at your ages this way, I would be in swoonly puddles.
