We all have them ... it is just the way we are

Part of our overall makeup - the way we star
A unique method each one of us has to light a fire
A very special way we approach, to ignite desire

For some, it may be a few sweet words, uttered softly
And for others - a quiet touch, in a tender place - might be
- The spark, lighting the soul, of our one true love, intended
To be the source of comfort, to make us, as one, blended

The steps we take to assure ourselves of the fire deep within
... A deep, longing look, stirring us, making us want to give in
To the burning, which is always there ... embers, simmering
And so we reach down and pull up those hot coals, shimmering

Placing them in front of us, fixed between our two bodies, now lit
On fire, from the blaze, of the torch passed, when the patterns fit
Placed together, seamlessly, in a merging of hearts and minds
For the passion shown between us - is our own, very special kind

- Tristram
