Where Has Your Fire Gone?

Where Has Your fire Gone?
The fire that warms my soul and my body.
The fire that gave me light and saved me from the cold void that threatened to trap me.

Where has your fire gone?
The fire that thawed the ice around my heart.
The fire in the conviction behind the words that leave your mouth
The flames in your eyes when they met mine for the first time...

Today as I look into your now cold black eyes I ask you,
Where Has Your Fire Gone!?
The fire that burns through my body when you touch me
The fire that lingers on my lips when you kiss me
The fire that lingers over me even when you're nowhere near...

You stare down at me and you take my hand.
No explanation leaves your mouth but I think I understand...
As I was a wanderer in the cold and shadows before you led me out...
Let me be there for you as you are always there for me.
Let me rekindle you..
I refuse to leave you in this pitch black trap.
Let me take you to a place I would dare not take another.
A land where the emotions of my heart run free,
where I hold my secrets,
where I hold the ugliest and most beautiful thngs...
...the place I secretly keep some of your fire inside of me.

I will gladly return what is yours.
And as cold as you have become, accept this small token, a piece of me.
Take as much of my flame as you need which in retrospect was already yours to begin with
So I can look up at you smiling as I once did this time with tears in my eyes
because we've journeyed and came out burning brighter than before... together.
Hold on to my hand and when you wrap your arms around me we will ignite
so much so that we lead others out of their own darknesses.
Eventually we will consume each other but from out own ashes we begin again.
