flames of the heart

sparked by flickers of attention
fuelled with mad devotion
heated from sensation
and held by an organic shell

it could be fluctuating love
longing for the warmth
brought from their dove
that they wish to protect

it could be limitless rage
longing for the pain
of the one in the cage
that they wish to break

it could be pure obsession
longing for the attention
of the thing in their possession
that they wish to keep
