Fire and water have a lot in common.
They both reach for that which they cannot have,
But on whose behalf.
In large quantities, they can be seen as an omen.
They both are destructive,
And seen as beautiful.
They are impulsive,
But excusable
For they do not think.
Despite their similarities,
They are also quite distinct.
They sing the same song but with different melodies.
One burns the skin,
While the other burns the lungs.
One sings from within,
While the other beats like a drum.
Morbidly,
They both dance to different rhythms,
But in the same harmony.
Their ultimate goal
hidden
