Hotter Than Fire

Hope fuels the desire that burns
within your longing heart and soul.
And yet loneliness soon returns,
levying a heartbreaking toll.
When passion's flame gets doused by tears,
anxiety leaves you nauseous.
And as doubt manifests as fears,
lust circumvents being cautious.
Happiness morphs into teardrops
within a world where wishes die.
For the lying, just never stops,
and fledgling hearts need trust to fly.
The moth and flame begin their waltz;
though courting death, she will expire.
Enamored, she's blind to fire's faults;
for desire burns hotter than fire.
