The Fire

By: Rachael Howard

My heart aches for you
to be with you
around you
beside you
Just near you
to feel you
your lips sweetly against my own
your arms around me as I sleep
I just long for you
to hear your sweet words
to listen to your thoughts
every word I love
My soul cries out for you
to breathe you in
to see you and to know
by the longing in your eyes
all your love for me
how I crave it
What can I do to soothe this?
Love is a fire--consuming
I dare not put it out
I love you
Do you feel it?
