LILT: Feuer & Wasser 1.1

I don't know. I need to sleep on this, but I think I'm close to done with Feuer und Wasser. I may need to polish it, as I'm sure tomorrow I'll find grinding rhythmic problems, but I'm pretty happy with the imagery so far:

Her breaststroke's beauty to behold
It lets me see into her soul
I'm overtaken by her allure
I pursue a longed-for overture
From her loin comes a great heat
It's explosive and then retreats

Fire and water can never be one
There's no fusion, they will not succumb
I have to shiver and seethe all alone
And in the water I'm burned
In the water I'm burned

Wet skin's beauty to behold
It vows to swallow and enfold
As her long legs move apart
The darkest cavern of her heart
Reveals to me her shadowed fire
An icy abyss for my desire

She glides by me without a glance
I'm shadow to her light, without a chance
I have no hope left and should have done, as

Fire and water can never be one
There's no fusion, they will not succumb
I have to shiver and seethe all alone
And in the water I'm burned
In the water I'm burned

Her strokes cause waves that surge through me
Yet every move from her eschews me
I reach for her with cold wet hands
And she will forever elude me
Understand

Fire and water can never be one
There's no fusion, they will not succumb
I have to shiver and seethe all alone
And in the water I'm burned
In the water I'm burned

I'm seriously impressed by this song, and the imagery, as I've said, really zings for me. I've nailed down what I get from Feuer und Wasser. Hopefully I've done the same for you.

Thank you Mr Lindemann!
