Different Flames

Different Flames Remembering when I was bold Hard to believe we got this old The flames from fire,warm us tonight It started with a friendly wink Fueled by courage from my drink The flames of passion,burning bright Laying together in our bed Nothing really needs to be said The flames of life,drift out of sight LIGHT A FLAME! Contest/Nette Onclaud by Greg Hoffman 6/13/2014
