Feed the Fire
A relationship cannot survive without fuel
Just as a fire cannot
It may burn hot and bright
But without additional fuel
The flames and warmth gradually fade
Still the embers may glow and shimmer
As a dream, remembered only briefly
Without fuel, even the embers will dim
Until warmth and light are no longer given
And the darkness and cold completely envelops you
When only one person feeds this fire
The embers may be sustained
But for the flames to ignite
For the flames to burn strong and bright
The other must also add their fuel
If you wonder why a relationship is fading
Look to the fuel being provided
Or if fuel is being put into the fire at all
Some fuel burns brighter than others
But I think that the fire burns its brightest
When both people take an active part
In preserving the sincerity of meaning
And do all they can to care for each other
If you really do care
Feed the fire
