Four seasons changing

No song I could sing

No whispers in your ear

Could ever

Amount to the volume

Of language I want

To dance for you.

That burned through

The stagnate black

And sparked my desire.

I am pyre,

Burning,

An effigy

Charring

In cheers’

I am ***** ash

And floating

No more devoting

Naked flame to

This blaze

That burned

For you.

Through
