PASSION

Love

with a passion

Or not at all-

no wimpy, silent, civilized love;

no;

A love of passion and darkness and fire;

the fire that burns, and creates;

if not:

what is love worth?

do I choose a soft, oatmeal- comfort love?'

Or do I choose to live and to die with passion,

Life is much too short, my dear souls;

to choose a safe and quiet love;

love with all your heart and soul,

or don't love at all-

hear the heartbeat, hear the pulse of life,

it sings, it beckons, it will drown you-

I embrace the fire,

I embrace life,

I embrace true love;

with all its pain,

and dark promise.
