“Burning Love”

The moment your voice falls softly
against my ear,
I stare at you without a word,
yet my heart longs to speak:
Words of love, immense as the sky.
That passion burns
deep inside me,
only for you.

I have wandered, searching for you
through shadows, through silence,
through old memories.
Wherever you are…
You, my azure flame,
my secret passion,
my hidden love,
hear the trembling of my voice.
Your name is the reason it shakes.

And I weep…
You walk away,
And I remain,
Alone with this fire.
Yes, I cried in my sleep
until sunset.
As though love, in all its wildness,
had tried to scare me away…
yet could not keep me
from burning for you.

This love, so wild, so pure,
the only feeling I have ever known…
a love so beautiful…
you never even recognized
its light.
It made my heart stronger,
in the very place where love once broke it.
Yet still,
you vanished before my heart could speak.
