Dear Fire
Dear Fire,
You can’t burn me anymore
Your smoke is no longer thick enough to suffocate me
My lungs are strong
I’ve bellowed for help and realized that I could save myself
So I crawled through the window and jumped into the night
And you called after me
I can still feel what I thought was your warmth
That scolded me until I was numb
My tears have dried, no emotion but regret
As I reminisce on the first spark that I thought we had
Who would’ve thought we’d be burning
Down the walls of lies
Only leaving the truth of decay
Never again
Water
