In this winter's hearth,
You are a broken flame,
The captured beast,
Willing and ready to tame,
Held back by brick,
Imprisoned in bliss,
Hungry for the ice,
And my winter's kiss,
I see your orange eyes,
Watching my icy grip,
As blue fades to grey,
And life gives a little slip,
Your broken flame dances,
Whistling low in the night,
And here my ice heart glistens,
To take to bed your light.
