ONLY LOVE

At times
like evening shadows
our intentions lead
around the bend
daring and unprepared

we brave an unknown
and with every step
a clearer picture
of our own Frailty
hope not of suitable armor
but one to wear well

I have leapt through
the fires of hell scorched
and with little remorse,
I feel with cold hands
fingers tipped with black ink
taming a constant burn

always in blind
to search the no reward,
only love would turn a corner
before its calling.
