“Fire and Ice”

• Sometimes like fire you are hot
You scorch, burn and flame
Sometimes like ice you are cold
In chills of ice and frost
Sometimes your eyes burn like fire
Sometimes emit flakes of crystalline ice

• Your heart sometimes erupts like a volcano
Love and passion flow and flood
Like streams and rivers rage
And sometimes it gangs dry
In cold so arid and dead
Bitter like frost, cold like ice

• I want to hold you in my arms
But I am afraid
For maybe you are like ice
And my heart’s like fire
I would melt you down
And maybe you were blazing like fire
And I was cold like ice
You will melt me to a puddle

• Sometimes like ice you steam
I try to kiss you but your lips so arctic
Deep inside its frosty and wintry
I would try to take you in
Warm you up in my heart
But I am afraid
Maybe you decide to live apart
Who will come again?
To add fire to my flame
Who will come to add some blaze?
Before I shiver in frost and craze

• What if I am ice
And you are an iceberg
Would you and I get along?
What if you are a fire?
And I am a blaze in a flame
Would our love still be the same?
Tell me what you are
And the same I will be
A flame of a fire, or an iceberg in the sea

    I like this piece because it reminds me of how things can collide:hot and cold,good and bad,love and hate.I especially like this one because it makes me feel like two parts are always conflicting.Amazing job!!

    Wow.. those lines are very powerful... The lines just called out to me when I read, having a profound "effect" They hit me hard when I read your poem, and yes, our own hearts and love could very well be like ice and fire - I like to think that there are at least 2 sides in a person, a person's heart and a person's mind

    Thank you so much for sharing this with us, Pete a delightful read, especially for a not-so-morning person at 6 am

    Yeah... fire, ice... fire, ice...
    You confused me here a bit.

    Although I don't like free verse (and it did rhyme twice somewhere...) I enjoyed reading this. The constant discriptions of fire and ice and in what ways they can effect each other.

    Good stuff.

    Nice back and forth poem

    "I want to hold you in my arms
    But I am afraid
    For maybe you are like ice
    And my heart’s like fire
    I would melt you down"

    I love that part the most.
