Still Loving You

Often said, in painful truth, that the brightest fires burn out the quickest.
I've observed it many times. There must be then, but only one conclusion to be had.
The love we found must be a Sun.

Roaring flames sometimes become comfortable embers. So here I am to stoke the fire.
Shaman on the desert plains who's mission is to burn eternal.

Seered into this Frankenstein heart, where a happiness I never thought I could know lends itself to such suffering; in every moment I miss your smile, every second I feel blind until the chance it returns to me.

I have never lost the passion. From the first fears of admittance to the new fears I'm not enough.
I click into presence to remind myself of the thing I cannot lose.

I am here and will forever be. Ironed out of my DNA without a twist.
Each moment without your words, a decay until you renew my strength.

Lantern lit in wait, it is time I burn the world so you may see the light.

Immortally vigilant.
Wide awake.
My soul is yours to take.

Because through these ashes a phoenix rises.
Cliché perfection.
We've only begun. A promise you will witness.
A purpose we will see true.
A dream we will see through.
Forever me and you.
