Eternal Flame

Enduring love is an eternal flame,
borne of mutual happiness, desire,
bathing each soul in light and warmth, the same.

A living thing, not meant for a frame,
two hearts being fuel for the fire.
Enduring love is an eternal flame.

True emotional highs, worthy of fame,
adding heat so the fire won’t expire,
bathing each soul in light and warmth, the same.

When I breathe out and you breathe in to claim
air that allows the fire to respire,
enduring love is an eternal flame.

Elemental trio sings a refrain,
birthing fires that shall never tire,
bathing each soul in light and warmth, the same.

You breathe out, I breathe in to play the game
began by our Almighty Sire.
Enduring love is an eternal flame,
bathing each soul in light and warmth, the same.

Author notes

A Villanelle inspired by a contest by Blue Rew. The contest is over, but I was interested in the subject. Three Sides Of The Pyramid...Focus the Elements.
My elements: Heart=fuel, emotions=heat, breath=oxygen for the three sides of the fire triangle.

Please tell me what you think

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!
