Like Water; Like Fire
May 10, 2010
Hydroplaning in a puddle of flames
Drenched in my own mortal shame
I turn away to make my feelings unclear
As your gentle words freeze my acid tears
Guarded by the ice of my dripping pride
You catch the ashes of the lava I cried
Drifting through the remnants of my molten sea
You extinguish my blame so I'm set free
Locked in your arms, my one desire
As your love for me burns out the fire
