Flames

Your form,
Angelic in nature,
Perfection in that imperfect way

Startled me,
From my slumber,
You walked quietly into my mind

Didn't notice,
Right at first,
That I burned for everything that you are

Palpable foolishness,
I couldn't notice,
While you were aflame for me

And thus,
Your flame left,
And mine won't lose momentum

    ..So I've read this poem maybe 12 times since you showed me this.

    But it was tonights reading that I actually was able to put it into reality..and Matt.....this is a stunner of a poem.

    Very well done Matthew. A literary genius in the making. I like the common them that appears in each stanza. You could separate each phrase and still get it.... with a little reading between the lines.

    and that says a lot.
