can?

can my kiss be the match that lights your flame?
makes it burn white hot in the dark of night?
can you warm yourself by the intensity?
a combustible fuel coursing through your veins?

can I touch your heart like I touch your face
reawakening and rewriting our history?
can we compose the happily ever after to this song?
or has it incinerated down to smoke and ash?

can you read my mind and figure it out?
is there any chapters left that you haven't read?
will you ask me to dance and before the music is through
will you ask me to dance over and over with you?
