How do you burn someone
Whose soul burns every day
In the inferno of her will
Sorrows perishing away
How do you ignite
The one with the fire in her eyes
Lighting you up asunder with a glance
Lighting up your darkened lives
How do you tell the sun
To stop shining today
When she blazes with all her raging power
Charring down her banes
She is the heat, the light
The days and the summers
Lava which passionately boils
The warmth which simmers
You can’t burn her down
She burns up everyday
Into the ashes of your fourth cigar
In the blackened ash tray
You can’t kindle her
She is already ablaze
She’s got the hunger
Of famished flames
She is the sun
You fear to look up at
She is the sun
And you can’t tell her
To stop shining.
