You used to set a fire in me.
It started in my chest, but then
A flame took over my entire body—
engulfing the space from my
head
to my toes
and then infused with my
central nervous system
so all I was feeling was you.

This flame has long burned out
but every mention of your name
reminds me of the
warmth
that once filled me.
