Fire vs. Ice

Calm, cool, calculating – the tricks of His trade

Passion, emotion, sensation – She whirls through life

They collide

But flinch back in pain.

Fire burns, Eyes blazing with life

Ice burns, Eyes freezing in contempt

They said His Ice could not be melted,

She said nothing could be that unfeeling.

They said Her Fire was hotter than the sun,

He said no one could survive like that.

He is drawn to Her

Like the proverbial moth.

She is drawn to Him

Fascinated by the enigma.

What's more intriguing than the unknown?

What's more attractive than the mysterious?

They Dance.

An intricate Waltz

Of tempers and hatred

Becomes a ritual

Never to be ignored

He coaxes the Inferno

Blazing higher in vexation.

The Cold Hatred changes.

No longer out of Hate,

But to see the Life

And Dream…

What are these emotions?

Ice can not feel!

The 'Cicle begins to drip

Trying to douse the Embers

Flames flicker

But flair to life

In the knowledge of success

Fire can melt anything!
