The “hotness” of those who ignite us leads us astray but maybe down the path we need to be going? Only time will tell.

For what it’s worth 
I no longer feel 
Unless, your touch alone 
Scorches 
Prodding me 
As deeply as a touch 
Once did 
Beautifully burning 
Serenity 
Uncontrolled 
And timid 
~Losing everything all at once~ 
And there 
In that space 
I come alive 
And ignite 
The air 
You exhale 

A World of You by A Faded Romantic

It only takes 
brief lapse 
in concentration 
a soft slide 
into daydream
a sudden shift 
into imagination 
an easy glide 
into reverie 
an idle fall 
into fantasy 
and I am lost 
in a world 
of you.
