LOVE LIKE CHARCOAL

My love for you is like charcoal ancient, steady, and more stubborn than the night itself. It doesn’t spark quickly, it doesn’t rush or flare for show, but once it begins to glow… once it truly awakens… it can warm an entire home.
It resists fire, but it never resists meaning.
And when that ember finally stirs, it burns steady, deep, slow, and true the kind of flame no harmattan wind can put out.
You’re not some ordinary matchstick love.
You’re the reason the ember searches for flame..
