i breathe you in
i cough you up
your smoke is in my lungs
nicotine
you poison me
i cannot get enough

there is nothing i want more
than for your flames to pull me in
there is nothing i want more
than to dive in for a swim

there is nothing i want more
than to be that for which you yearn
there is nothing i want more
than to see the forest burn

beautiful
like the winter air
beautiful
like an autumn day
beautiful because
you don't care
so beautiful,
want it anyway

fingertips pressing
into the flame
feeding it
my flesh and soul
its my fault
i love the pain
melt me down to
make me whole

beautiful
like a summers past
beautiful
like a bright spring day
beautiful
but we won't last
so beautiful
want you anyway
lashes
