Flame

I am cold and you are hot

But afraid of you I am not

Never wanted anyone to chip away

But here you are, here to stay

You sit there with your flame flickering

The corners of your mouth snickering

You enjoy watching me melt away

And I enjoy being led astray

Far from the comfort and quiet

It almost feels like a riot

You made my walls come down

Now the ice is no longer around

You keep me warm with your flame

Now I’m begging for your last name
