In the Fire and the Flames
The Cruel Goddess
You see her, and she kisses you, and suddenly you're lovers. This relationship is like nothing you've ever experienced before.
It's burning you up, and all you want to do is scream.
And you try, you really do, but no sounds come out, nothing because you have no voice, she's the only thing you have.
And the fire is lust, and its desire, and it's passion. Anger and hate and destruction. And you let it burn, because you need to feel something.
And it's burning, your heart is burning, and she is the lighter of the flames.
And sometimes you're trying to escape, to flee from the stake and the fire, the destruction that is your life. But she holds you there with a flick of her hair and a pitiless laugh, curling around you and holding you like shackles to her cold embrace.
And she burns you with cruel and selfish fire.
And you try and break away from it. The pitiless burning in your heart, consuming everything in its path.
She wants you, she wants to see your very soul burn for her.
But destruction is short and it will end eventually, you know that. But in that moment you're enthralled, and she consumes you and watches you burn.
And then suddenly she's gone and the burning turns cold like ice, and freezes your heart. Cold so intense it hurts, and all you want to do is scream, but you have no voice, and now you don't even have her.
And it continues to consume you, but this time the destruction and not the flames will have you first, and you relinquish your soul to destruction with despair.
The Tender Angel
And then you see her, you kiss her, and suddenly you're in love. This relationship is like nothing you've ever experienced before.
And it's burning all that you have left up.
It melts the ice in your heart, it melts the biting cold, and it burns and it's raw and it hurts.
And the fire is betrayal, and its understanding and its love. Spanning years and continents, lives ruined and bloodshed. And you embrace the burn, because you need her.
It's burning, now your soul is burning, and she's the fire, she's the flames.
And you never try and escape, this time you're clinging to the stake, you're clinging because this time the flames are your salvation. She holds you there unintentionally with a look that pierces your soul and you want to feel her warm embrace.
And she burns you with tender and passionate fire.
And you find it Irresistible; this burning in your soul, because no one's ever looked at you that way before, like there was something more. And you feel it, that passionate burning in your heart and it's consuming your very essence. And the flames lick at you eagerly, feed on you, slowly and surely, they caress you like a lover, they're warm, so warm, and you lean into them rather than away.
She wants you; she wants to see your very soul alight.
And it is eternal, you can see no end, and you know that this is love.
Love is burning you up, she is burning you up, and all you want to do is cry.
And you try, you really do, but no tears come, because it has consumed you. She is your all and everything, she is the definition of your universe, and she holds your soul in her hands.
This was epic, and you wished it hurt less, but the intensity was worth every lick of the hungry flame.
And it continues to consume you, but this time the love and not the flames will triumph and you relinquish your soul to love with ecstasy.
