thirty-seven

You were what I needed exactly when I needed it; and I know that I was the same to you. And if there ever was a match for me, in that moment of rage and passion, it was you. And together we roared and flamed- the sparks were alive with love and mutual respect and admiration. And engulfed in the burning fire, I knew that it wasn't meant to last long; but long enough. And, though I miss the intense heat and long for it again, it was enough. And I look back with fondness for what we were. I appreciate what we are. And I am always looking forward to what we will be; and how we will skirt and flirt with the burn in the future.
