The night
You became my light
I never realized
The danger
That led me
To you
You pulled me in
A force of gravity
I can never escape
To be close to you
Meant being scorched
Just being near you
Was a suicide
Because,
Loving you
Meant my final breath
All of these-
Warnings shone
Yet I ignored the peril
I braved through it
Undaunted
I made my way
Next to you.
In a flash,
We were colliding
But I,
I was dissolving
You were consuming
My very being
And I was letting
Everything happen
Because I was falling
For your dazzling
Unreachable gaze.
Rooting me into place
I continue to marvel
At the love found
When I looked above.
