Aug 2010
Sweet flame, melt me to cinders
Ashes and dust, a mess on the floor
My eyes clouded, storms rage
My heart is broken, shattered, torn

You lit a match to my security
Burnt down the proverbial walls
No longer able to fake indifference
With nothing left you see it all

Look at me, I look at you
Smoldering eyes, with liquid drops
Am I the cause? Did I do this?
I wonder with my stomach in knots

Emotions flaring between the two
Passion and rage collide; explode
To speak of fear is anything but easy
In somber silence the room grows cold

Despite blazing fires of torment
Still it is only for you I care
Your eyes make silent promises
My scalded heart is laid bare

Take my hands, tightly in yours
Though your intentions remain unknown
I can’t repress or deny the fire
It burns for you and you alone
