A Flame Poem by patrick o'shaughnessy

like a fourth of july rocket
sparks flew in the air
i peeked and caught your eye
but you didnt seem to care

cause we were both caught in the flame
of our passionate desire
cause your warmth caused a spark
and caused a uncontrollable fire

alas our lips pulled apart
but i felt the constant roar
as i felt the fire in our hearts
and mine began to soar

so then i took you up with me
and i slowly pulled you in
cause mine is starting to dwindle
but a new spark can begin
