Thinking of love? Valentine’s Day is on its way. “Anne” has some ruminations on the subject for you.
By Anne
It’s as if you’ve turned my heart into an ocean
at the same time you’ve lit it on fire.
It seems to slosh around with every motion;
I can feel its weight, its infinite depth.
There is no limit to its flow.
The fiery tongues dance inside me,
engulfing everything they see.
I feel the warmth of both comfort and anxiety.
