Consumed


there is a fire
inside of me
in passions
tender flow
embers kindle
on with time
yet the heat
remains a glow
refreshing cooling
in this heat
generous sip
from passions cup
where sparks fly
to warm your soul
as a flicker to a flame
flairs up
come to me
this very night
and step within
its flame
we shall dance
between the blaze
to be consumed
and still remain


"I have already paid for all my future sins."  Sade...(King of Sorrow)

helen - consumed in these words you are. I can only say what I've said before, your writings are with sweet tenderness, some sad perhaps, but always telling...

Ya never realize just how much you love a poet until ya don't get to read them anymore. I adore this, Lady! I've missed being here and reading your work. and yes..I'm always reading.

Ooooh, this is very seductive, I like this one....of course I like all of yours. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.
