I dedicate this to the man who never knew he was the only one...and probably never will...to the man who will never know how dearly I hate him and how terribly I love him, to the man that sparked that first fire deep in my heart.
Fire Eyes

Your eyes
They glow with a firece intensity
Watching me
Watching me fall.
You know me
I can tell; I can see
How can you say you don't
When you've just met me once before?
I put a guard up
I put it up so no one could penetrate
Deep into the locked gates of my depth
But you do it easily
Smoothly
Like fire through water
Like fire through ice
You mystify me
You hold the key
To lover's caresses
And sweet melody
And me.
Shall I?
Your eyes invite, offer, tempt
What only cna be given
If I keep it out of reach
And do not let my friends see.
Black seduction and red silk pillows, I think.
But there is more in your mind
Than there will ever be
In me.
Fire eyes, you frighten me
Like flames licking the walls
Coming closer ever closer
Trapping me.
You smell my fear
And excite in it.
We share a glance, a look
But the fire burns
And I must turn away
Else you would feel my longing
Confused desire
Repressed want for you.
Your eyes
They glow with a fierce intensity
Watching me
Watching me fall
For you.
