Nightmares and the Safety of Sunrise

Nightmares and the Safety of Sunlight

I am still burned and fearing the flame that nearly torched my existence. 

She is like fire in the soul and you go back to heat your hands every time my winter skin gets to be too much.  oh she would burn if weren't for your icy exterior. Love this line too

Sipping her in like cocoa, mumbling through chattering lips how you hate these icy months. 

But who are you again, dear? 

You look like you and sound like you, but what has become of your heart? 

Surely this dream has compared you to another past work of art. ahh she is being compare to the greatest of past art, the past line seem to suggest a difference in dream her and real her.

An ex lover with wondering green eyes, swinging ways, and a broken smile I believed every time. 

These dreams have a funny way of making me miserable, 

taunting me to relive every heartbreak 

and painting your beautiful face on the sins of thieves.  like saying your face on every stealing of my heart. I love this line so much

The only line i dont understand is the ex lover line. what is the purpose of this line might I ask? Otherwise the entire piece have so many imagery that make this such a masterpiece-like to me.
