Fire Of The Night Poem by Kevin Carney

I looked into the fire of the night…
Flames burning bright, illuminating the darkness…
I looked into your eyes….
Reflections of the open flame…
Dancing inside your eyes.
The devilish look, the touch of evil…
Embers reaching the sky.
Dancing to the heavens…
In a graceful waltz.
Grace and beauty…
Turning to the shadows of the dancing light…
Will you tell me our fortune?
Can I see through, you the way?
We will ever be?
What will fate have in store for us?
Am I to believe in the reading of the stars?
It’s such a conundrum I am left in….
I see you in a different light every time we meet.
I wish I understood it all…
But, I am afraid I am left in Neverland.
I want to reach out and throw it all to the winds.
And take you in my arms this night.
Only to whisk you away…
To hold you ever so tight…
And taste your sweet perfumed lips…
To slowly caress your soft, perfect body…
Maybe, just maybe to never let you go.
I think you know this in your heart.
Maybe it’s what you fear…
