Liar

Fire spreads through the river of blood,
Ice freezes my heart.
It burns, it floods
It bursts through my parts
A hot liquid that jars.
It heats my skin but I still feel afar
Have I been hit by a car?
The ice begins to melt,
My heart begins to warm.
Hope has begun to dwell
In a small place in a winter storm.
It lives there like I live in this dorm,
This new hope is not the norm,
It is powerful, subdues my fire,
My friend, he's not a liar.
