You have burned me down,
But through the flames...
I am still
BREATHING
LIVING
CRYING
SCREAMING
WALKING
RUNNING
LAUGHING
ALIVE
Not matter how hard you tried to bury me…
I am still
SURVIVING
LETTING GO
FORGIVING
HEALING
GROWING
BLOSSOMING
FINDING MYSELF
BECOMING…
A different person from the person
you tried to and are still trying to…
DESTROY
CORRUPT
MANIPULATE
CRUSH
TERRIFY
BEAT DOWN
CONTROL
This is my final creed to you
I promise you I will always…
FIGHT UNTIL MY LAST BREATH
HAVE AS MUCH COURAGE AS I CAN MUSTER
BATTLE FOR WHAT IS RIGHT
PROTECT AS MANY PEOPLE AS I CAN
LOVE LIKE I ALWAYS HAVE
FORGIVE PEOPLE WHO DESERVE IT
HAVE UNENDING KINDNESS FOR PEOPLE WHO DON’T…
Like yourself.
I won’t let you take my…
KINDNESS
BRAVERY
COURAGE
LOVE
SWEETNESS
PRIDE
HUMILITY

I refuse to give you that power
- Out of the FIRE I was born again

I asked once
“Why did dad die young”
And I got this answer
“God wanted more angels”
Here’s the catch
He was Buddhist
I’ve wonder that for years now
What is the afterlife?
If there was heaven,
Did the people who didn’t believe
Get in heaven?
Or are they doomed
For the eternal flames?
I wonder some strange things
I guess you have to wonder
To get answers.

There is a burning sensation
deep within my soul
it pains and aches for only one

This fire is swells and burns
with great passion and desire
it boils and bubbles in idle wait

The fiery love,
the overheated temperature
your touch sets me ablaze

The smoke fills my vision
blocks my view of the dragon
but your body I will never forget.

As ashes fly and soar
my heart cries and utters no more
In the end there is blackness as I hear your wondrous roar

Even death cannot stop
the depth of this burning love
upon the grave time brings us together once again

We connect a fiery rampage
Passion, need, and instinct at work
A testament of our love never forgotten

Our hands met
Fire on ice
My ice cube hands melting in your warmth
Fire on Ice
Our love burst into flames
That became bigger as the flames burst
My fingers intertwined with yours
Gripping tighter
Getting warmer and warmer
My ice heart melting in your warmth
Melting in your hands
Fire on ice
Your burst of hot flames
My fingers wrapped around yours
Like a spider
I nested into you
Never wanting to part
But when we did
I ached for you again
Feeling icy
Until my hand met yours
Once again

I watch
The world go down in flames,
Burning, driven by blames;
I hear
The screams of the dead
In the comfort of my bed;
I feel
The silent pain and tears
And everyone's deepest fears;
I see
How we slowly fade into the abyss
Into days of hopeless bliss.

closer and closer
comforting yet electric
sets your skin aflame
