Beaded Valentine

In little baskets of beads
The truth comes out
These shiny things strung along
 
Which hold the light
From so far away
We want to go there
 
Bracelets of fiery creatures
Necklaces of those
Who immolated themselves
 
Entering annihilation
Their golden earrings jingling
As long as love was with them

Leaving us with this vague
Longing to follow them
Into merciful flame
