I never needed you, not to write. A simple replacement in lieu of her. To reignite that flame of my creative vessel. Fuel to the fire. Emotions with which to wrestle. Your licentious abandonment seemed dire, But now I need no fuel for this fire. The flame is I. With hungry, flickering tendrils, roaring. As it shall be till the day I die. At once ravaging and warring. At once outpouring and restoring.

Flame
I never needed you, not to write. A simple replacement in lieu of her. To reignite that flame of my creative vessel. Fuel to the fire. Emotions with which to wrestle. Your licentious abandonment seemed dire, But now I need no fuel for this fire. The flame is I. With hungry, flickering tendrils, roaring. As it shall be till the day I die. At once ravaging and warring. At once outpouring and restoring.
