The warmth I once felt with you Has changed It grew and grew and grew Into a flame. Your touch became pain A searing burn on my insides Blistering inside me. And after I knocked you down Down to the floor You left me for good Taking everything Except the sting you gave me. And now I still cringe When I think of you For that death still stays. But Now I know To keep the flame in check To not bathe in the warmth To not consume it And To let my Hot Pocket sit for two minutes before eating.

You Hurt Me
Boiling and steeping Still too warm for drinking, just Get inside my mouth
