Fire Drowning
By MrsGalt
I am broken, but I am reborn in the ashes
Borne out of your phoenix robes
Your fire that consumes my being
Is the same fire that molded my soul
The crackles I hear in the bonfire of eternal yearning,
Is the sound of myself roaring for you to listen to me----
drowned, indistinguishable, overlooked.
The heat from my fingertips,
is the residual warmth from the edges of your clothes,
As I begged for you to stay
The dance of the yellow, red, orange and blue tongues of fire,
Are the neon lights flashing in my eyes
Blinding me, and hindering me
To see the last pieces of your shadows
As your fire burns out...
I am inflamed,
yet I am cold in the numbness you have forced upon me
Love, I am eternally exiled into the pits of despair
Since the time your soul has been extinguished from my life.
