relationships flourish
like blazing fire
but they also die
flames flicker
darkness descends 
inching its way to take over light
it comes with a windy breeze 
feeling good in the moment
but it’s force will quench the fire

only if you let it 

one must stand and protect 
one must value and cherish 
one must love and be loved
but two is better than one.
when the winds are strong, 
how can one withstand it’s force?
when the tides are high,
how can one stop it from getting by?

one can’t do it alone
one needs Two   
to ring around the rosey
to accept all flaws
to have and to hold 
in the same manner,
two needs One 
one heart
one mind
one soul

we need each other
we need love
we need God
He is Love
let Love fan the flames
let Love drive out darkness
let Love flourish
let Love blaze 
Blaze in Love
