Sugar & Fire

Disclaimer: I don't own Adventure Time with Finn and Jake or its characters.

Two princesses reign over a hero's heart

One made of sugar, the other made of fire

"Sweetness can win," said the madman

But with love, fire can be greater than

She is the pink princess

The smart saccharine sovereign

Pure and refined sugar

And a rose-coloured majesty

He thinks she's so pretty

Her kiss takes him

Above the candy castles

Into the cotton candy clouds

Under the vanilla sky

Sweeter than a royal tart

But after a taste, he waits for many an hour

And as time passes, to the hero, she seems more sour

She is the pyro princess

The young lady lanterness

Whose vermillion light can blind

The star so she'd be his proxima centauri

She think's he's so pretty

Her kiss smolders and scorches

And she surges and surrounds

Him and all around

The world's ablaze until there's two

Cinders and ashes rising with the smoke

While the hero wants to carry a flame,

He secretly fears that she wants to maim

Who the hero chooses remains to be seen,

Sugar and fire can, at times, be mean

But one day, our hero will say

"Will you be my queen?"
