Gold Flame

The crackling of fire continued to deteriorate the wood. As time passes, both continue to loose each others form. Fire diminishing along with the wood that turns to soot until there is nothing left but smoke. But the journey of both brought warmth to a now cold home. Without their partnership, the beauty of feeling heat on a cold winter night or a rainy day would have never been experienced.

 

Their differences are surely vast that it could be difficult to coexist sometimes. Fire needs to spread, burn and devour all in its path, quite self aware, fierce and yet it knows how to survive in that manner. It also knows when to stop and remain but a small flicker. Earth is always warm, calculating, observant and just still. Nurturing and silent, slow and steady. Allowing life to exist, emitting empathy and giving birth to new opportunities. The possibilities of its care are endless.

 

Fire and Earth may not be an ideal combination due to the ultimate power both can produce if they worked together. They can make a whole nation collapse if unleashed. It was then that the two realized they could create even more wonders together. Gold coming from the earth could easily be melted with fire and turned into something precious. Without earth's elements, fire cannot exist and similarly without fire's involvement, earth's form cannot change.

 

The gold flame is a promise that both precious hearts will always belong to each other. Despite the obstacles of their union, the distance between their outstretched hearts and the burning strength in their souls to always be there for each other.
