Time Log

By Serenity Mosqueda

Will my love be warm again?

The passion once had with sobbing from us

From the loss of a love so bright

Does a fire burn brighter with two logs?

Or does it simply leave all in ashes, the spark unable to warm both at once

Was I even cold?

Or was I fearing the coming winter, unfamiliar with how to adapt

Ultimately throwing all to flame, my memories smoking with it

Will you ever burn again?

I cannot see a fire without your smile branding my brain

A mark that reminds me of the consequences of arson

Will I know how to sustain a fire in my lifetime?

Or will I continue smelling of oak

An ash trail left behind for all to see
