Fire Wish

I was building a fire when this poem started to come through...





Fire Wish - 08 Jan 10

Building a fire
Against the coming night,
Remembering
How we used to sit
And gaze upon the flames
Wishing
That it will happen again
Tonight

I watched from my window
To see if you would appear
When I called
To you

Darkness closes in
Too quickly
And with it comes the cold,
I turn from the window
And set a flame
To the kindling
Then turn again
To look out
And call

Streetlamps
Cast a yellow glow
Mocking the flame
I cannot see you

But still I call to
You





Feeling the sadness of a lost love.
