Love is fire

I loved him and kept it in my heart
And I never let him know
It was dazzling passion from the start
But my feelings never showed
I was unable to bring myself to express
This lust that was so strong
I should’ve been able to simply confess
Because this love could never be wrong
I became weak and helpless when he was around
his closeness made me quiver
my heart would just drop to the ground
his eyes would make me shiver
day and night he was on my mind
but still he was unaware
of the chills he sent up and down my spine
with his one penetrating stare
those endless nights I spent awake
and yet he never knew
my soul he did so easily take
this love just had to be true
he never to the slightest realized
that I cherished ever word he’d say
nor did he know that I became paralyzed
each time he would walk away
in his absence I would hear his voice
it lingered inside of me
deep inside I have made my choice
I’ll love him for eternity
I only wish that I told him how
My heart was his true place
But I know that it’s too late right now
He left me without a trace
I have to admit that I am to blame
Because love is just like fire
The longer you leave the burning flames
The more your heart burns with desire
