Like a firework, burn until the very last second, grip the life you had, created by falisies and man made ignitions. Can you burn me down please? Embers, then ashes. I will start again. I do not want to be made of you, and him, and mistakes, and everything I regret, which is all that seems apparent, when nothing is setting you on fire. I wanna be coals, and baby it'll take years, before a diamond. I wanna be over, and starting, and finished, and begining all at once. I wanna sear your flesh, with the intensity of my love. Physically, stoking the feelings in your soul. I need air, and proding, and a little compassion, before you can expect me to keep you warm. I'm lifeless. I am not earth, wind, water, or burning, churning, incinerating, fire. I am waiting. I am flint. I am spent. Spark me, please, I am eager, to take care of everyone else, before myself. To mesmerize your eyes, with my beauty. I want to be too much, a blue flame, I'll hurt you, but you won't even feel it. I can **** you, but without me, there is no life. I am over, and I am done, and I am waiting.
