"The Flame" Part III
"I'm melting in your gentle arms
This is the sweetest form of harm.
Please hold me closer; your light is soothing
I'm lost in space, although not moving
And when I die, don't let me go
The snow will console all the woe."
"I ask, my love, if I should leave
My heart of flame is killing you
If not for fear, for love: reprieve
I'll leave because my love is true."
"The sacrifice is all I need, my darling
Please hold me dear, you're just a starling.
No one's loved my chill: this world's of fire
But it is your difference I admire."
With cold last words, the ice did pass
Into liquid, like sand to glass
The pool drowned her, caused quite a flicker
And so the room grew ever dimmer
He sent her into paradise
Behold: the flame who loved the ice
