the memories spread through my mind much like a bush fire they do not make me warm anymore they burn me and make my skin peel they torture me with lies and a forced “i love you” it feels like i’ve called 911 hundreds of times but nobody can help us surrounded by fire and slowly melting screaming each other’s names til our voices are hoarse from the smoke the flames have devoured us nothing is left but a pile of ash
