Falling for you
Is like being mesmerised
By the flame of a burning candle
A light so bright
I can’t take my eyes off you
Like a moth to a flame
I am oxygen
And you draw me closer and closer
Again and again
An attraction so blinding
So passionate
So enticing
My hands hover over the fire until
I reach out to touch you
Even though I know
It will backfire
And it will burn
My arms are outstretched again
Attempting to hold on to you
An intangible, flickering flame
And on this wintry Spring night
You shine brighter
Than the majestic flower moon
And the Sun can’t see
The miracle she’s created
By bringing you to me
with love, emily
