I want a passionate love One that consumes me One that takes me to highs I could never imagine But love these days is limited If you love someone too old, too different, the same gender It's wrong People move away Things are spoken, and thus the magic disappears Just as magic is expected to do And yet, I want a love that consumes me A love that rarely exists in this world And I may never have it.

I want a love that consumes me
The hardest part is letting you walk out the door Back to your life That I know hurts you That I know exhausts you That consumes you I want to be there for you To take away the hurt I want you to be yourself again To be happy To be free To say and do what makes you content Without regret I adore touching you Kissing you Loving you The taste of your lips on mine The touch of your tongue on mine Every caress carves with such intensity Sometimes too unbearable Because I want this so much With you Your touches Your closeness Your warmth Makes me whole again I will wait for you My door remains open I will let you in

Waiting...
"What do you do with the anger?" pause "What do you mean?" I ask. "I mean, what do you do with the anger?" pause I never thought about it that way. The anger that builds up fuel inside of us, the everlasting flame, what do we do with it? What do we do with the inextinguishable flame? This flame that burns inside of us from the day we are born until the day we pass, this flame that burns all in its path - what do we do with it? "I don't know," I respond. "I never realized just how much it effects my life." "Find something to do with it. Find somewhere to channel it. Find something to control it - or let go of it. Let the fire burn out. Anger is not a fire that keeps you warm, it is a fire that consumes you. It will consume you if you let it. Be free of it," he said. "Let it go and never look back."

What do you do with the anger?
The thoughts of our love consume me... Your face is etched into my memory... The warmth of your touch is seared to my flesh... The sound of your voice rings constantly in my eardrums... The thoughts of our love consume me

Our Love
inside this forest that consumes me i thank god for what ever light there may be across the darkness that fills me i pray to god for what ever light i may see as the sun begins to rise my heart begins to stray in search for the daylight skies that may some day save the day growing up i was never taught of how to cut down a tree nor was i ever taught what to do if a forest was inside of me -a.m
