Heart Inflamed

Hold me back from the inspiration that grips my heart
Like shards of glass sounding
Piercing through to the deepest hidden part
Binding my heart to love

Hold me to the solace of selfish longing
That tenacious memory of
One night
Lost in passion
Lost in music
Lost in dance
You
Shot straight through like a spark
A fire unleashed in the whirlwind
Capturing my heart in the flame
