Flames
You are a fire
I was longing for some heat
To keep my shivering soul from leaving
And to remain on my feet
Your warmth brought us in
My soul and self
But everyone warned us not to get close
And of the pain that would be dealt
My soul couldn’t listen
She was on a mission
Fascinated by the danger in your unpredictability
And the unfamiliarity of your flames
“This is how we escape the pain”
“Run with me towards the flame”
Of coarse it couldn’t be tamed
And now only the scars remain
