A Torrid Love Affair

entry picture

Waves of smoke fill the air

Like a blanket 

Covering the bed.

 

It flows in unison

Oblivious of its surroundings

Slaughtering the weak and bare.

 

Latent offspring of the fire it emerges

Cascading an emotion

Too dreadful to compare.

 

Crazy how one feels

When writing about a love affair.
