Your Love is a Fire

Your love is a fire
Burning bright and hot
Behind your eyes
Lighting up your smile.

Your love is a fire.
Given the fuel of reciprocation
And air in the form of space and freedom
It can burn until the end of time.

Your love is a fire.
Take away the fuel and it slowly fades.
Take away the air and it is quickly smothered.
Fire needs care.

Your love is a fire
That warms my soul,
That protects me from my own cold.
Your love is precious.
