Feelings once held
October 5, 2011
Feeling, like a spark, flies through the air,
The sparks catch in her eyes.
A burning starts deep below
Creating a fire, if kindled would grow into a blaze
Compassion with every word
Keeps the fire strong
But… every fire needs air
You can’t choke it even though you care.
It will smolder from smothering it.
Time passes and the blaze dies down
Doubts soon fill her eyes about you
And the fire soon dies out
Leaving a black ashy area that has been burnt of all life.
