Flame

“I was the biggest fire you’d ever seen.

So naturally you tried to put me out.

You smothered me with your cruel actions.

Threw ice into my heart,

with your hateful words.

You had fire in your soul.

Until someone put you out.

And now you have to do the same,

to feel anything at all.

I’ll never understand,

why my love brings you hate.

I wasn’t the one to cause your pain,

So why do you fill me with mine?

I won’t let you turn me,

From a fire to a smolder.

For every fire you put out,

I’ll just rise up another.”
