&& they are so different
he can s e e that so well
not that she does
&& even if she did

She would never admit it.

:-:

He used to think she was fire
she's p a s s i o n a t e
&& w i l f u l
with that flaming red hair
which seems to burn
with her confidence

He admires her
for so many reasons
her wit && intelligence
her laugh && smile

Nothing can ever bring her down
because she is b u r n i n g p o w e r.

:-:

He can't remember
ever being so wrong
because she isn't f i r e
not at all

Fire is her f a c a d e
she wears it well

In all reality she is water
she's f l u i d
a d a p t a b l e
e v e r c h a n g i n g

&& he is air.

:-:

Maybe that is their problem
maybe she is too adaptable
maybe he just doesn't care
maybe they just
c l a s h too much.

There is no b a l a n c e
she can consume him in flames
or freeze him in ice
&& he brushes past it
like it means n o t h i n g.

:-:

If she is water
then she needs something
d i f f e r e n t
something better

Better than him.

She needs fire
to b a l a n c e her out
she needs flames
when she is ice

She needs passion
to rival her own.

:-:

He knows it has been wrong
since the very beginning
but he's always loved
a challenge

He knows who she belongs with
&& she does too
maybe they've just been in d e n i a l

:-:

So he has to let go
they both do
they have to let go of the facade
face what they've been hiding from

:-:

So maybe he swept her off her feet
maybe it was a w h i r l w i n d r o m a n c e
but now is the time to let go

Before they both d r o w n.
