Love Poem: Cold Fire

Cold Fire



Glacial on the inside
Frozen memories 
of a lost, tropical paradise life
Frostbitten feelings slowly moving
to the other bipolar side

Icy reflections of striated emotions;
dark moods, 
lighthearted nostalgia aurora views
temporarily soothes

Sparkling snowflakes — 
crystalline sadness swirl deeper inward
everyday
a new layer of coldness
ignite the igloo beating hearth

Sub-zero lonely, empty pulse desires 
buried inside an Arctic aorta:
The pulmonary permafrost side of hell on earth

Solitary cold is the fire
that burns within
A desolate fortress of denial
is never warmed by the freezing flames

The cold dawn of bliss
is eternal midnight burning
underneath an avalanche of anguish  

Love snuffed cold fire ...
the icy cries keep neverending smouldering

Always ready to soul shatter burst
into a raging blizzard of unmelted tears again
