You burn my soul,

Just like a wild flame,

You bring out my spirit,

Free and untamed,

My heart is wild and black,

You're the positive poison,

Who always has my back,

Black and deep in emotion,

A black rose in bloom,

And a burning heart that

goes boom!

You love me just as I am,

Wild,

Free,

Untamed,

Uniquely me,

This is what true friendship is,

Two friends sharing love,

No rules or sex,

My precious black heart,

Our souls run like a black river

of fire;

Wild,

Unique,

United and free,

In our own identities,

A friendship like ours,

Gives people a scare,

A love with conditions,

Forgotten,

Because we really care,

Love is not simply bound to two

people;

It comes from the heart,

Without unfair rules,

Or conditions,

It can be,

With trust, respect and dignity,

Being human is the purest,

And truest,

Love of all,

Being human,

Is to love, care, and,

Give freely,

It is unconditional,

Yet still respectful,

It doesn't know traditional

conformity.
