You set me on fire cause you like to watch things burn.
yet you were born in January a cold month of snowflakes upon your baby blanket.
so as I burned from my ears to my feet,
you watched with icicles running down your cheeks.
I knew you wanted to feel the heat but held back,
in awe that I wouldn't put up a fight,
I knew the unspoken words of the night, my plight, my right, so I burned.
icicles becoming raindrops, kindling among my flame and your snow.
