Fires burn hot but rarely last

What remains is just embers

Our own love-volcano cooled

I wonder if Julie remembers

She went from heart to zero

Furnace turning to ice floe

Soul out of fuel and cooled

Flames flickering with woe

She was temperamental

Blew cold with the best

Have you ever nestled in her crescent bed
Like the kid in the DreamWorks emblem?
My winsome lady

Because falling in love shouldn’t be as easy,

As me kissing you, and you kissing me.
