A Flare for the Modern Romance
He said before he left
leave the door ajar
keep the flares unboxed
Just in case
To light when in distress
those long days
cold nights
He said before he left
not to let the pen dry up
keep the ink bleeding
these thoughts flowing
He'd find them
If I needed him to know
my feelings
He kissed me before leaving
lingers on my lips even now
these eight hours
Flares not touched
But my thoughts lighting the way
leave the door ajar
keep the flares unboxed
Just in case
To light when in distress
those long days
cold nights
He said before he left
not to let the pen dry up
keep the ink bleeding
these thoughts flowing
He'd find them
If I needed him to know
my feelings
He kissed me before leaving
lingers on my lips even now
these eight hours
Flares not touched
But my thoughts lighting the way
