Flame

Broken, battered, shattered, bruised, everything to abused.

A faint, quiet, steady, pulse, with nothing left but remorse.

The blood hot, burning, boiling, in her veins, left nothing else to explain.

Her heart was fried and almost gone, until he came along and fixed what was wrong.

With a little tape, love, and compassion, that old heart would have an allergic reaction.

Now it beats, loud, steady, and a little more clear, because she finally knew forever was near.

Thanks Tommy! When I write, random things kind of flow in a whirlwind of excitement.
