burning hearts

A new fire has been burning
blazing from the depths of my heart
did someone move in again
or was she there from the start?

As I look in her eyes I can feel
my heart beating faster
and the world stops turning
right before her lips touch mine

What was missed for an eternity so cold
made my heart get covered in gold
this is one of the tales that have been told
in a body whose heart is finally sold

When she is with me
the world can be on fire
that would still be colder
than her warmth in my chest

Now as I lull myself to a land of faraway
I can still feel her presence as the fire in my heart
is growing louder and brighter everyday
shining between the cracks and the shards
