"Measure"

              
             
Innocent conversations, open, honest, could this be
A new beginning, with common interests found
She nervously speaks, questions, wishes to learn more
Will he
Could she
               
Be everything the other hopes to see
Hours pass, minutes perceived, they discuss, explore
Every random thought shared, salvation to fornication
Each is drawn, captivated, but to what degree
               
Can one measure pure attraction, is it a possibility
To acknowledge, comprehend, calculate
Vast, rare consequences, or could fate have revealed
Connections of spirit, soul and body

She nor he may never grasp completely
This free admiration, allure and trust
Mutually placed in the forefront of fascinated minds
Should one ever attempt to measure
No, just accept, proclaim, "Coupled by destiny"
         
For as they meet, smoke signals rise, revealing the story
To those who observe, immense combustion
The cause, condition, explosive passion ignited
Leaving behind only ashes for others to inventory
