Fire and Ice

By sPaRkLe

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

The door creaks open I know it's cold there Yet a sense of heat overcomes me So hot that it sends chills down my spine The outside is the illusion The door slams shut I feel the heat rush in It's burning, it's burning... Yet I sense cold This time it can't be hidden No illusion for that Yet no one seems to notice No one seems to care Ignorance? No, this can't be ignored It's obvious, yet can't be detected Plainly revealed, yet hidden Open, yet shut Hot, yet cold...A long time ago...God only knows when..., Written March 11th, 2002 © on Mar 11 2002 08:01 AM PST   18 • 0 • 1
