Tinderbox Passion

Delicate balance,
She tried to make it
But this
Tinderbox passion
Kept her near the sparks.

Relations in stress,
Where was the patience?
But then
Tinderbox passion
Could not be kept locked.

Emotions ignite
And spread in fashion
But then
Tinderbox passion
Brings back the hard knocks.

Ash and souls smolder.
Until they are ice cold.
But this
Tinderbox passion
Is kept near the sparks.

And will ignite again.
