Meta for the Metaphor - Something Different

A warmth begins the flame
Gather all we can muster
Heat flows from within the Earth
Weights on the cluster show how pressure strains to let us glow
Memorize the bits
Oh, please stay sharp, my dagger
With confidence we roam, but by the end we stagger slow, as if we have nowhere to go
Horses in the dark appear to give us power
We're children in the park; stay in the slide, mute our guffaws, and we'll have fun despite our flaws

Sweet cuts take time to heal, lest you change your mind
And this heart-ordeal may lead us to the sea
You may not face the divine, but you could waste some time with me

Rest, reset, begin again the following day
It's why we make our beds
We need some home to stay warm, to keep us well away from harm
Feel the ebb and flow
You have the moves to copy
I tend to disappear; I'd like for you to stop me soon, or be the sun and chase the moon
Whisper in my ear
Know I can keep a secret
Why can't it leave our heads?
Do you not wish we met old and knew better than to be fooled

Sweet cuts take time to heal, lest you change your mind
And this heart-ordeal may lead us to the sea
You may not face the divine, but you could waste some time with me

So, let's forgive the start; all awkward moments linger
And let's forget the end; ignore the rude harbinger who says he knows what will be true
With wit to slice the skin we reveal every layer, map out every curve
We harness strength while sayers sooth
We'll live a life without the proof
And you say we may drift apart; Know I can fill the schism
Say that you don't belong; Fix that anachronism too, if it ends with me and you

Sweet cuts take time to heal, lest you change your mind
And this heart-ordeal may lead us to the sea
You may not face the divine, but you could waste some time with me
Oh, with me: you may not face the divine, but you can waste some time with me
