I don’t understand how this happened.
Stories of old about spontaneous combustion, really?
Too hot to handle.
~
You here in this book.
A look.
Words and words.
~
One book, words of faith.
One book, words of unbelievable futurism.
Did you fight?
~
Did you struggle and toil?
Did you become alive?
Did your words not mix well?
~
The heat from your discussion started a spark.
Smoke streamed up from the page.
Light from fire flickered into being.
~
Where there is smoke there is fire?
A heated debate.
Consumed by passion.
~
I’m right.
Not, I’m right!
Are we both wrong?
~
Obstinate
Passion
Two sides of the same coin?
~
Heated words.
Heated tempers.
Points of view awry.
~
Nothing left but ashes.
Dead
Nothing left to say.
~
Spontaneous combustion
We destroyed each other.
Words lost forever.
