Sometimes a love that burns red hot turns to cold grey ashes over time.The fire that burnt so high and bright has now gone out.Then you write it all down in the book of life and learn to move on. The winds will blow away the ashes, letting a new fire get started once again.

    

We had a love that burned red hot,

no known fireman could ever put it out.

It could start up at any given moment,

it could be morning,noon or even night.

**

We made love in all hours of the day,

didn’t stop until the sunrise came up.

Take a bath and cooked some food,

but then its back to bed  once again.

**

Our bodies would tell its own stories,

but satisfaction wrote us the ending.

As long as we both loved each other ,

our fire of love will forever burn high.

**

But something happened along the way,

our passionate fire slowly turned to ashes.

The firemen somehow extinguished it,

leaving nothing but cold wet gray ashes.

**

What happened to our red hot romance?

Now we both have taken different paths.

The love we had did not die in the ashes,

but we just cant get it back together again.

**

So lets just record it in the book of life,

learn from its long hard painful lessons.

Find who we was meant to really love,

never forgetting what we was to another.

**

But there was no regret in meeting you,

or the love that we had for one another.

You was a dream come true in my world,

in the end that alone means something.

    The fire only continues burning if two add ingredients to keep it a flame. A touching poem. Thank you for sharing your talents.
