She is a fire that burns me With flames fatal to the touch Like ice I need to melt sometimes Her burning burns me so much I can't help but feed her fire Until her flames engulf me I can't help risking desire Until blindness; I cannot see She is a fire that burns me Yet I do welcome the heat As I stand upon the sun And smile, though she blisters my feet I know not why she burns thus; And I endure the anguish I know not why it would kill If the flames are extinguished She is a fire that burns me I ignite, and together, Are consumed with the passion That burns us forever |

I enjoyed the fire/ice theme you've come up with here, and with so many wonderful phrases...this is just lovely. Claire **Oh, and had to add that I LOVE the title! [This message has been edited by Meadowmuse (edited 02-09-2000).] |
