Flame Poem by Rebecca Pepper

It feels like I'm holding a flame
But this flame holds a name
And never will I wish for you to become tame
For it's your feelings that warm my heart
And your words that tore my walls apart
Kept me close to sane from the start
Like an anchor, a safety rope
My own little globe of hope
A reason to press on and learn to cope
The first I let in and the last I'll let out
Because you own my heart without a doubt
