Burning in a cold love

What could have possibly go wrong?

By JAMRPublished about a year ago 1 min read

I still don't understand how such warm touch and words came out from such a cold heart

I thought we both were going to keep this flame alive

But it was only when you left that I realized that the flame was only in my insides

That my flames would never melt your iced heart

And it was always like that

You were the one that created my fire and then left me burning alive

My love was growing and growing

Caring, worrying, sharing you my life

You made me believe that the bond we shared was candle warm

That the way we hugged could heal our souls

But of course that was another lie, it only healed and destroyed mine

I should have known that the boy who defined himself as cold would never melt for my love

But I have no regrets

Because thanks to your cold heart

My burning love for you froze and now I love myself more

Now the feeling of be burning in a cold love is gone

    This captures the bittersweet journey of loving someone who couldn't love you back the same way. The imagery of fire and ice is powerful—how love can burn us but also teach us to heal. It's raw, honest, and in the end, empowering.
