You Radiate

The heat from

the blaze in your eyes

is stoking my embers

lighting the path to

my carefully constructed

will of steel;

keeper my secrets,

protector of passion.

The burning

heat of your stare

race up the walls

of my chest

leaping higher,

growing stronger,

revealing this now

dripping and

molten heart.

You radiate.
