Your touch was fire
But it didn’t scorch me.
Instead,
I glowed.
I blazed alive.
Instead of submitting
I thrived
It was so natural
I was dusk experiencing dawn
I thought I knew fire
Until it burned me
Abruptly I was
Flushed with color
Colors I never thought existed
Flashed
I was bright
Suddenly feeling so fierce
Wild, lively, and tempestuous
I could start a 

                                         wildfire.
