my hands flinch at the heat
memories of burns and past defeats
and my every bone warns of the fall
yet, I stay atop where old cracks crawl
and when i feel I'm bound to crash
i press the pedal harder still
as if speed could silence reason
as if ruin could rewrite will
so when their winds blow on your flame
or tear the edges of your name
i bite my tongue, but not for long—
know that I'd still prove them wrong

I don't know if u'll ever see this but i want you to know that more than anything, i have become your friend. So even if this ends, i will continue to be your friend. Stay strong, dearest.
