burn you up

she'll burn you up
 
   her red hair firing
 
       rockets into space
 
  she'll burn you up
 
   with that smile and laugh
 
       close your eyes
 
to doors swinging  
 
         at the edge
 
to a place
 
You can't reach.....
 
   where gigantic gladiators protect her heart from loss,
 
   protect her Classified Files from breach.
 
 
    she'll burn you up
 
green eyes fluent in the forsaken and forlorn language
 
 of
 
flapping        and     flogged wings
 
 catch wind now
 
and
 
leave
 
or
 
   be fodder
 
for grunting beasts.
 
she'll burn you up
 
with a tenderness softer than baby skin
 
  close your eyes
 
    but you'll never forget
 
   her blaze,
 
    as it strives triumphantly through your heart and brain
 
   leaves your Cold Mountain
 
          black and desolate
 
   leaves your face stranded to howling winds
 
remembering vividly her grove    that
 
   gave you protection from brutal rain   
 
close your eyes
 
but you can't escape
 
her ways
 
   which hike and side winds through  your trail of day dreams
 
   to the gem in her heart
 
   that you may never reach again.......
