You kindled hot a fire inside of me, <br />And toasted crisp my very cares away, <br />Flames did engulf my being totally, <br />That even my desires can't go astray; <br />The embers smolder til these recent times, <br />Enduring snow or blizzards and the tears, <br />And might in deserts or much hotter climes, <br />The better all these trying times it bears; <br />But fires in burning will themselves consume, <br />And life may soon just be a burnt out ash, <br />But burning altogether, we resume <br />As brighter flame before we turn to trash; <br />.....That even when to snuff out at the end, <br />.....Our flame has twice the brightness to expend.<br /><br />Reyvrex Questor Reyes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-sonnet-194-you-kindled-hot-a-fire-inside-of-me/
