Strictly prohibited heart
Himself being the lock
Has to be opened one day
With a key of its match
Came out with a key of love
Me the suitable match
Unlocking his heart of stone
With a delicate touch of smile

We were the perfect couple,
We were like a match.
We burned bright
And strong,
And faded fast.
Nothing but a mere whisper
Of smoke
Left behind.

Pass me a torch,

And watch me set the world on fire.

Because I am a whole body full of gasoline.

A human being made of fuel, just searching for love.

A desperate lover with fire burning within, looking for a companion.

A hopeless romantic filled to brim, hoping for someone to burn forever with.

Because I am a whole body full of gasoline.

And I'm just waiting for the perfect "match."
We are like nature. Ever lasting.

Ever sense i was a spark in her womb you've been faning the flames.
You've held me tight between you both, carful that i don't blow out
You've given me the nutrients i needed to bun high
But then when i grow one way you fanned me the other way.
Away from things you see as wrong,
Unfit.
Rude.
A waist of time.
While holding me tight you somwere along the way frogot to let go.
Do you not understand i can not grow under this pressure?
do u not see me being smuthered?
So now it is to late.
I am dying.
While my light is bright it is small and will not last.
You Can not go back and fan any spark into me now.
Now i pray for death.
That cold darkness.
Then you will let go.
Then you will forget my glow.
I would pray to be ash.
The kind that looks like ***** snow,
Floting.
So that i can join the soil, right under your feet.
So that wildflowers could grow through me.
The ones no one will pick
Or put in a vase.
So that you could not display them at my funeral

The cold is no match
For the fire I have inside
For you it will burn
Only for you will it subside
For a heart of stone I have
Inside burning with flames
Only you can tame them
Only you can eliminate the pains
You being cold as ice
Will shatter the stone of my heart
Creating something new
Giving both a new start
For when I thaw your cold veins
And blood comes rushing through
Together we will be there
Together, just two
Fire and ice
Together to challenge
Whoever walks our way
With the fire in my eyes
And the ice in yours
Together, making quite the display
An angel of winter on one side
The other a fiery stray
I’ll keep you warm
You’ll keep me calm
Together, in this world of gray
Good morning to my angel
This is what we call a 'shadow poem' which is a poem in reply/compliment to a poem the other sent.
this was a Shadow Poem for her poem "Ice-Breaker" - btw her poems are better ;)
I want to drown
in a pool of love.
I want the smell of perfume to fill my lungs,
and the sweet feeling of affection
to rush between every cell of my body.
I want to be held
I want to be kissed
I want to be cradled
as if I was the only one,
and nothing matters.
I want the touch of her
to make me feel safe.
I want my girlfriend to be  decided.
To know what she wants,
and to know that she wants me
and only me
is it too much to ask?
Or am I just dreaming too much again?

His eyes wide open
Mind a haunted alley
A shadow that swallowed light
Day crumbled at his darkness
Burning with fuel of coldness
Frozen in medieval times
Lurking under umbrella of madness
Wild smoke meeting match
Numb in the cycle of pain
With razors sharp edges of actions
Masquerading like a ghost halo
Bleeding fire in solace of night

Our love is like a match.
It's a burst of love and life,
That finds a steady pace.
Until death comes along,
And wins the race.
To my love.
