Struck from the same match, but in different rooms.
One was fire. One was embers.
Before they knew of destiny or fate. They knew of each other.
One dreamed of setting the world on fire. The world got to see them shine.
One held the heat close. They learned to live on steady heat in a cruel world.
Twin flames born two decades apart. Each a half of the same whole.
Each incomplete without the other.
Each born to the same mother.
They were the Alpha and Omega.
Though they burned differently. It was the flame from the same star.
Flames know their own. For a short time, they burnt together.
One flame was smothered too soon. One must burn alone now.
The flames were never meant to be identical.
Only connected….
Two flames with one match. One soul split into two bodies.
A separate road to the stars.
The flames will rival the sun when they meet again.
That night, the stars will dance. The earth will know, the flames are whole
