The Eternal Flame
A heart that loves doesn’t fade with time,
It beats with hope, and burns sublime.
Through shadows cast and storms that rage,
It holds the fire of a love that stays.
Though time may steal what once was dear,
And fill the days with doubt and fear,
The heart hums on, a gentle tone,
A love that glows, forever home.
It loves in silence, loves in pain,
Through shattered dreams and endless rain.
It holds on tight to memories past,
And whispers love that will forever last.
No chains can bind, no waves can break,
The love it gives, the steps it makes.
For deep within, a truth is known:
A heart that loves is never overthrown.
It beats for moments lost in time,
For echoes of a love that still aligns.
It glows in darkness, shines in night,
A beacon of a love that holds the light.
Forever pulsing, wild and free,
It bends, it breaks, yet loves eternally.
An endless flame, a guiding star,
A love that shines from near or far.
And when the world grows cold and grey,
This flame will burn, come what may.
For love, once lit, will never die—
A heart that loves touches eternity.
