Playing with Fire. May 31, 2009; 2:00 a.m.

The child is crawling
The fire burning within is calling
The dancing flames
Enticing
The sparkle of the eyes
Mesmerizing
The heat at the core
Completely consuming
The warmth on the fore
Ever so comforting
The coldness yond the heat
Biting in to the soul
To thaw her feelings
May be his only goal

Aware of the burns
He touches it
Knowing the hurt
He walks ahead
Will be disfigured
If he acknowledges
Will be charred
If he embraces

But the love that he feels
Makes it all worth it
Knowing all of that
He gives in to the shear
Lets his love
Finally win over his fear
