Fire dancing,

Smoke all around like a gray cloak.

Something so beautiful it hurts to look at

Hurts to remember

Hurts to touch

Like my memory of you.

And how we used to dance

Like the fire encircling me.

To protect my memory

I must protect my enemy

I must be brave

I know what must be done.

But am I strong enough to do it?

For you…

Yes.

A love that could never be

For what is love without a heart?

You are gone.

I can never accept that.

My best friend

My love

My fate

My heart

I will join you,

If there truly is a thereafter

I must destroy myself.

So take me

My fire

Release me,

Take me to him

Let me hear his voice once more

Let me see his grin

His bright blue eyes

Just once more

Take me to my heart

Take me to my friend

I know he's waiting for me

Somewhere…

Fire will you dance?

Fire will you destroy?

Fire can you protect?

The embers burn at my coat

Setting me ablaze

Like the fire around me

The tears start to flow,

Water mixing with fire.

Dark with light.

I look up

And I know now,

That I do have a heart

It rests within you…

My love.
