The heart burns like the fiercest fire Lights with passion as its igniter Grows the more it is feeded Weakens when not given what's needed Takes astronimical portions to keep the hunger at bay Just a bucket of water washes the heat away Fully aflame it can be seen for miles Even a spark can light up an aisle It'll streak, power, shine and search for love It'll break, whither and darken when it finds none When the flames of wanting are said and done I'll tell you the story of the heart has only begun. The embers left over can always be rekindled, New seeds of Eden in black Ash can always be sprinkled.

Burning Heart
The heart burns like the fiercest fire Lights with passion as its igniter Grows the more it is feeded Weakens when not given what's needed Takes astronimical portions to keep the hunger at bay Just a bucket of water washes the heat away Fully aflame it can be seen for miles Even a spark can light up an aisle It'll streak, power, shine and search for love It'll break, whither and darken when it finds none When the flames of wanting are said and done I'll tell you the story of the heart has only begun. The embers left over can always be rekindled, New seeds of Eden in black Ash can always be sprinkled.
