With just her voice
She ignited a slow burn
Casual glances from pictures
So many mysteries to learn

To dive in and explore
And for more than that, he yearned
All that is missing in his life
For all of her heat, he burned

She radiates the glow
Another head is turned
He lays down in the fire
Of a very slow burn

I love this! *S* Wonderful write, my friend! *S*

Good morning, CG!

I echo suthern's "Wow!" In fact, that goes double for me!

The lyrics "Burn baby, burn" ~ come to mind!

~ A smouldering piece of writing!

I feel like I'm supposed to smoke a cigarette after reading this. I don't even smoke.

Nice work.

Everyone deserves to be loved, even you.

I forgot to put this in my library first time around... not surprising since I forgot to breathe, too. *G*
