Wilfred Aniagyei Poet Rhyme

Fire and Ice

 I hate to love You
         This love, a fiercely lit fire
         Full of burning desire
         Like fire 
         We burn bright like light
         Like fire
         We burn out without a fight 
 
         And sometimes...
         I love to hate You
         With deep emotions, cold as ice
         Birthed within your binding lies
         Like ice
         It stings when I hold too much
         Like ice
         It melts with your soothing touch

Kp Nunez September 22, 2015 at 3:21 PM Such powerful emotions expressed using metaphoric fire and ice. Succinctly illustrated poetry. I like that hate, like ice, thaws with the beloved's soothing touch. Good one, Wilfred. Wilfred Aniagyei September 23, 2015 at 4:30 AM Aww thanks a lot, Kim...... True, the deeper a hurt, the more sweet its release at the touch of a beloved.... Thanks again!!!
