Cold Fire

I've felt the fire before but yours is a different kind of fire its slower more subdued it wraps its flames gently around my bones and whispers wind into my marrow its lovely heat fills my mouth its fingers trace letters of lava onto my shoulders and its breath leaves embers tangled in my eyelashes the more i am burned, the more i crave your kisses leave brands along my neck leaking passion into my pores fiery venom spreading through my blood to my heart where its poison hums a smokey lullaby

This was written about a guy I was in a relationship with for a year. It was different than a lot of other relationships I'd had in the past..it was slower, not as fiery, but still beautiful.
