I’ve seen fire
And I’ve seen ice
But never in the same instant

The fire began
Raging and wild
When it reached its peak
Your snowflakes started to fall
They faded my fire

Freezing my flames
My veins pumped the blood
The fuel to the core of the fire
Making it stronger
But my heart was frostbitten
Tainted by the horrid wind
I reach out to you
But slip on your ice

Freezer burns
The fire breaks
Shattering as it disperses

Sharp edges
Jab into my soul
Like razorblades, they cut at me
Stinging and scarring me
As I fall

Frozen tears peer out of my eyes
I breathe the bitterness of cold
When it caresses my lips I shiver
Wrapping my arms around myself
I blanket my soul
I can no longer feel the fire
It’s been completely destroyed
No broken traces
No open holes to crawl into
Too late for safety
You’ve frozen me

With a fire so strong
I can’t see how it can be demolished
So suddenly, so instantly
When I was so warm and content
Then so rapidly bitter and frozen

Cold and empty I crawl to you
Asking for comfort and warmth
You turn your head in shame
I continue to fall
Five feet under, I am
So close to death
So close to destruction
Save me now or I’ll be gone

I’m wasting away
Don’t kill me this way
Bring back the fuel for the fire
I’m crying here on my knees to you

You hold my heart inside each snowflake
It can’t take this harsh cold
It needs the warmth of a fire
A fire you conduct
A fire that feels so naturally perfect

It’s too late now
I’m below six feet and still falling
My muffled screams no longer to be heard
Through frozen flames
I sink into darkness
With my cold, and lifeless being
