Burning paper

Burning paper

breaks apart, sending glowing flakes into the air

pushed by the heat of the fire

caught on a gentle breeze

~

Burning paper

floating here

floating there

with a glowing heart, softly into the night

~

Burning paper

glowing spark

transfixed eyes on that spot

floating softly 

~

Burning paper

down you come

what was once a glowing ember

becomes dimmer

~

Burning paper

just like what was written on your pages

soon will be gone

with the spark goes the heat

passion extinguished on burning paper
