On and off
Back and forth
The way you swing
Your mind with choice

Endless feeling
Never fades
Corrupts my needing
Destroys all faith

This bright lit ember
Burning deep
Crowds the heart
Bleeding seeps

Blow upon it
Watch it glow
Cuts down in
Feelings show

Always radiating
Never fades
This ember burns me
Until I’ll cave
…


Yet deep within
I feel it scold
But within my arms
Still I hold

This ember burns me
And I know it’s true
But I feel it strike me
And I’ll miss it’s hue

If the ember
Grew to flame
I’d hold it closer
Back again

Never drop it
No matter pain
And hold till death
Till grew with gain.
