Your touch sends a quiver beneath my skin And I feel a fire burn inside my chest Your love pours over me, cleansing my sin I feel the same fire, burn inside your breast And when a fire burns, it starts to spread Wrapping around everything you've cherished I'm engulfed from my toe up to my head Flames that burn this bright could never perish Even when low, they're always smoldering Cold on the outside, warm in the middle And with all that weight you've been shouldering, I hope I can heat you up a little Now when I feel the cold, I lean on you Feeling warm, enjoying October hues.

A Sonnet of Fire
Your touch sends a quiver beneath my skin And I feel a fire burn inside my chest Your love pours over me, cleansing my sin I feel the same fire, burn inside your breast And when a fire burns, it starts to spread Wrapping around everything you've cherished I'm engulfed from my toe up to my head Flames that burn this bright could never perish Even when low, they're always smoldering Cold on the outside, warm in the middle And with all that weight you've been shouldering, I hope I can heat you up a little Now when I feel the cold, I lean on you Feeling warm, enjoying October hues.
