Embers flame sizzles
within hardened freedom.
Broken charades haunt
life’s wanting of you.
Cross roads of horror
bring realities imprint alive.
Masquerades dances
paint wisdoms flames forever.
Lost in fires embrace
as foggy fragrances surrender.
Haunting memories eruption
caused by love for you.

This is a very deep take on the prompt. It is a literal oxymoron.. a damned if you do.. damned if you don't type of writ. I really enjoyed the flow and alliteration, as well as the imagery. Love does sometimes haunt us, especially when the mind has not settled with the heart. We try to step out in faith, but often with that which is not intended for us. We attempt to hide what the heart screams, fooling only ourselves. Hauntingly longing for that release which inflames deep passions of taboo. Wonderful write my friend and best wishes in the comp
