Love burns

white smoke turning grey,

the crackle of a cinder

in a moment of madness

the last sigh of your love

sharp alphabets

in green ink

sloping and running

before they disappear in wiggles,

the sheets

licked to shapelessness

by the yellow tongues

of flames.

flames

tired…sleepy.

the wind gently puffs

and the dark curls rise in gentle circles

floating away to another life…

why is it

that the mind still holds a burning matchstick

to yet another fire?
