Ebonite

---

Heart is a rubber, love is a fire
Oh what a name, we call a flame
Filled of sulfur, but iced as fur.

---

Set me ablaze for my bad gaze
Love is a spot, a melting pot
For all genres to harmonize

---

But in that pot I have been burnt
Turned into ash by harsh, rough patch
Hoping to find love that is blind…

---

But got a wink and a long kick
In the blue Ocean of passion
Where it all cease along the breeze

---

Burnt by another bolt of a thunder
As the rubber melts in the fire
It seemed to be an unending thing

---

Until she came in, sweet and clean
Gently unwound, the love I found
From ebonite; rubber I made.
