Wanting you is like wanting to burn alive Pain, pain, pain. Numbness. Needing you is like needing nicotine, Wanted so badly, yet rejected so harshly. If I could look back and change my way My feelings, from the start, I can't say I would.  I like the burn The needy habits The routines full of nothing. Then there's the water Wanting you is like wanting to drown. Struggle and flail, then orgasmically peaceful. Needing you is like icicles Glimmering during cold, melting when the fire arrives. I miss that. I miss that more than fire. Fire is fun. Dangerous. Scary. Water is gentle. Careful. Wonderful. If only I could break away, Away from the burn, The burn that I crave. The burn that gets me high.. Then maybe I'd want to drown.

Fire and Ice
