It is easy to be fooled by your beauty and mistake you for a flower like a Dahlia, Tulip or Orchid But you are not that frail and standing so still requires one to be torpid Instead take it from an admirer You are a brightly burning fire Yet despite the danger My fear grows fainter I realize I cannot stop and I must keep going I am bound by my heart to try knowing So you are a fire?  Then burn and consume me Flicker, scorch and smolder and by reducing me to ashes you’ll show me That despite the lateness of love’s season Things do happen for a reason And should this be the death of me I am fine, I just need to be free from this mystery Could you ever love me?
