The Sea, The Fire and You

by Sondos   Feb 4, 2006


Take my heart and split it
In three parts, not two.
Throw one into the sea
The next to the fire
And the last I give to you.

The sea will wash away my hurt
With bitter honesty
The fish will kiss away my grief
Then give it back to me

The fire reignites my passion
And gives me energy
Its protective flames
Lick the pain away from me

You will fill the hole in my heart
Like nobody else could
With memories of times long gone
That will never be relived

You'll keep my heart forever
And never give it back
The axe you took that solemn day
Will never cease to hack

One day the pain will numb away
Never to return
The sea and fire that I yearn
Will be transformed into human form

    This one I have read a couple of times before. The title was eye catching and gave the first image, ver vivid and beautiful. Then came the words with very sad images. My fagvorite being the ocean which does seem to fit the part of, "The sea will wash away my hurt
    With bitter honesty"
    And the fire does seem to reignite things instead of always dying flames.
