you burn me
yet you soothe my wounds with your words
i set you on fire
and then lead you to the river
you are the flame
offering the light to find my way
i burn you
and abandon you in pain
you set me on fire
then hand me the oil
i am the flame
you try to escape
we destory
to build back up
together we burn brighter
our fire shining bloodred
together we create a flame so high
it swallows our surroundings
we stand in the middle of the ashes
and look at each other
a couple of days after writing this i talked to this person (who doesn't know about this) and they said to me: "we tear each other down to build us back up" - and we stood in the middle of the ashes and looked at each other
