Your Love by Hooman Shahkar
Illustration by Julie A. Snyder
Your love lights the fire,
The fire evaporates my heart.
The cloud rains.
The rain mixes with my blood,
goes to my eyes,
falls on soil.
Soil gives it to sun.
Sun puts it in clouds.
My lips taste the rain.
The rain travels through my veins,
To my heart -
Putting off the fire for a while.
The End
