Wildfire

You found me in my lonesome meadow 

Your light so blazing; it kidnaped shadows 

We talked and laughed 'til almost dawn 

One hour with you and I was gone 

It wasn't long 'til I knew 

The type of disaster I was falling into  

For I saw the flame that encircled your soul 

Even before my heart you had stole.  

You're a wildfire, baby, there's chaos in your bones 

You're just a walking sin refusing to atone 

You brought light to my meadow, but then you burned it down.  

Saw the destruction that you make and ran yourself out of town.  

You're a wildfire, baby, crazy and out of control. 

You're just an empty vessel, how ironic that you made me whole.  

I've tried to smother it, but it just burned hotter 

It's too big to extinguish with a bucket of water.  

You're a wildfire, baby, a dangerous force of nature. 

How I miss the days when you were just a stranger.

Knowing almost instantly, that where you are treading is dangerous ground, but temptation being too strong to stop you. Beautifully penned. Thank you for sharing.
