ALWAYS AND FOREVER
Part 1: The Fire Within

Crimson eyes
Belonging to a girl with a heart of ice
That is what the world sees
In that pair of crimson eyes.

Blue eyes
Belonging to that of a boy
Who is both warm and cold,
A youth thinking he's just a toy.

Fates are decided
And their paths soon cross
For he was called by one
Whom he, years ago, lost.

The blue-eyed one looked deep
Into that crimson colored pair
And a tiny spark of fire
Was what he saw in there.

He tried his best
To keep that fire burning
But his best wasn't good enough
Because away she kept on turning.

Even at this, he did not give up
Still firmly standing his ground
He gave her some of his own fire
To prevent her flame from dying down.

Soon his efforts were rewarded
Her fire grew and shone a bit bright
And that was because he
Never backed down from that fight.


Yet still she remained the same
As emotionless as one can be
So he finally asked her one day,
"Would you please smile for me?"

She stood there, surprised
Wondering what she would say
Whatever for? She thought.
But she did so anyway.

His heart beat like never before
His mind felt like he was in space
For he had never seen something so pretty
Than that dazzling smile on her face.
