Still

It has been too long
Things are now so far away
Distant, just as memories past
The fire no longer holds sway
Do I no longer long
Has passion died at last

I was forged in ice and fire
Both pulled with equal strength
I was always between two spheres
keeping both at an equal length
Avoiding consequenses dire
If not happy, without tears

No I long, I long, still
Fire and ice have combined
With the memories I clutch
tattered, creased, and lined
Fire and ice have filled my will
And so I love and dispair so much

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
