House on Fire

by @LactoseIntollerantScorpio

When the house is on fire, Do you wait around and discuss the fire, Or do you get out of the god damn house? See, a rational human would smell the smoke, Or feel the heat, Or hear the alarms going off, And tuck tail and run. But me? If you told me to stay in this blazing fortress, I would. If you told me you needed me to stay, until there was Nothing but ashes around me, I would. I'm a sucker for pain, everyone knows that. Even if it hurts me, I'd still do it for you. I know that's not healthy, But I love you.
