You were nothing but a flame

Igniting the passion in me that
I thought was dead

But my heart was an inferno 

Annihilating anything that comes its way

I never deserved that light you gave 

It brought back too many familiar memories
Which i never wanted to revisit, ever again

So i pray that you find another 

That burns just as bright, or brighter

With your presence that it consumes you

And lights you up again from within

So that you will forget what it was like to be burnt 

By the wrong kind of flame

And falling into a bottomless pit

At the thought of my name
