Fire & Ice

<--------××××××××---------->
I was at my lowest, grasping for straws.
I didn't even know it, but I was nothing at all.
I couldn't make it until my heart got home.
I was in a darkened place, waiting for naught.
I didn't see it coming, no idea what I'd sought.
I couldn't make it until I was no longer alone.
I was in the pit of despair, unable to climb out.
Grasping at dampened sides, entirely devout.
I didn't know what I was even waiting for.
I didn't see a light, end of this tunnel syndrome.
I didn't notice the crash, you could be the one.
So, instead, I let you slip right out the door.
I didn't see, that I was just waiting to be saved.
I didn't know, know you were my saving grace.
I just turned my back to you, too afraid.
I didn't realize, you'd always stay and not waver.
Couldn't even fantasize, that I deserved a savior.
But you stood back up, you didn't change.
I wasn't a better man, words said and done.
I didn't deserve it, but you were still the one.
I didn't know what I was supposed to say.
The voices inside, unable to leave me alone.
The poisonous lies, unable to cope alone.
Yet, you didn't drop me and let me fade.
You always asked me, would I be okay today?
You took care of me, gave me a safe haven.
I realized, too late, you were the one.
You never dropped my hand, not even once.
You never abandoned me, not even by force.
I realize now, how lucky, I must have become.
I didn't know, know how to express this.
I didn't know, know what could exist.
I could've been better, not drug you down.
I didn't see, see how pure was your beauty.
I didn't see it, no, but I was made to believe.
I drug you down, but you didn't let me drown.
You saved me, you know, when I was unable to.
You saved me, you know, that poisonous plumb.
You may not see it, now, but you saved me.
You saved me when I couldn't save myself.
When I looked around, there was no one else.
You should have been there to see, from me.
You saved me, but your mirror shattered then.
You pulled me from the depths, but what then?
I had to watch you shatter yourself for me.
You thought you'd become a flame, to fix it.
But you didn't know, you were to be this.
A new mirror, a new soul, stronger than me.
You were like water to my ever growing flame.
And I didn't see it then, no, but it's the same.
When pushed together, a new flame is born.
That's why they call it fire and ice for a reason.
It's a mixture of warmth, cold and two seasons.
Together, they create something entirely pure.
And you, my guardian angel, will come to see.
You thought you'd destroy me, but you'll see.
You were the thing that continued to save me.
Plagiarism is a Crime.
