Red and Black Hearts

Our intertwined hands
Bring visions of crimson to blind me.

Suddenly I'm tied down,
Bound by rose vines.

Its thorns pierce me and draw blood;
The drops fall to my bare feet.

Surrounding me
Is the smoke from the fire we lit.

Passionate flames burn bright,
The smoke and petals fly away into the night.
