Life Is The Pull Of Opposites | Magical Beings

Fire and Ice

Desire and despair

You are ice and fire The touch of you burns my hands like snow

Amy Lowell

Alight with desire Our bodies burning as one I melt in your arms Your skin heats beneath my hands Flame on, says the Human Torch

I am the fire that burns against the cold… George R. R. Martin

Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Betrayal, guilt, love Brokenhearted, abandoned Describes loneliness After joy departs, leaving Posthaste on the evening train

I’ve written before on the heat of the sun and the cold of the winter.

Opposites are not contradictory

but complementary.

Niels Bohr

Let There Be Light

In bleak midwinter Darkness dominated all Save the sun’s daughters Glimmering, glowing, golden Inspired transfigurations

Winter’s Queen

Snow, blizzard, moon, I came to him in the twilight, The eerie half-light that never disappears. He was life outside warmth. He was unfeeling. Now unfeeling is all I know.

Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I’ve tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To say that for destruction ice Is also great And would suffice. Robert Frost
