There was a fire

It is not always the case that the love affair you have would be your final affair. And at times, you know it from the beginning that it may not last. But yet, it feels so magical that you carry on anyway. And in that, you play, between your mind and emotions, so to speak, your brains versus your heart. And in that short-lived but magical affair, you often find yourself twisted where you mind tells you that this will end up hurting everyone, while your heart says, but the emotions are real! You want to get out, but you want to get in too. You know its not forever, but you want to stop the time. Relationship gets sour, but there is plenty sweetness remaining too. You know you will get burnt, but its warm with the fire. You know your mind is telling the truth, but the heart is not lying either. The verse is a monologue of this twisted heart.

There was once a fire,

that danced in the joy,

flames up so high,

that darkness skipped by.

I don't find it now,

its weak and meek,

even a small tide,

could sweep it away now.

Nothing lasts forever,

it never had a fate,

reigniting makes no sense,

would be a short lived affair.

But the heart insists,

it doesn't mind the glare,

maybe I should regnite,

for the sake of final flares.
