Heat

Impulsively, reverent passion arrives
The curious nature of sin won't abide

Wronged scarlet's abundant as jealousy's fed
With accented surface hued crimson and red

A feverish relapse to fill up the space
Cyclical fable brings charm not disgrace

Mem'ries cloak silence and scurry from voids
Refilling a desert once fertile and coy

Yearnings return drenched in sweet fervor
Familiar and strange words penetrate further

Colors of copper flash fiercely through eyes
His brazen seduction comes in from outside

Warmth sits on my shoulders, caressing my breast
Her whispers of foresight deter me from rest

The air becomes lighter and softens the lines
Breaths into a comfort that lessens my crimes

Clear echoes of blood loss in veins once too deep
Fill with cold raindrops that stifle sin's heat

Past's smoke and burnt ashes turn softly to snow
Mist soothes my quick heartbeat as sleepiness grows

A cycle, a season, one for each piece
Each element moving that helps in release
