She was born wild and curious.
A cage is no place for someone like that.
"I play with the fire of my own truth," she told me, "I will burn for the things that I love."
------
Even if I knew that you would never love me the way that I loved you I couldn't stop myself because I knew that I would rather feel pain than feel nothing at all. I knew that in the end I would be left on the floor in a pile of ash. I knew because when I love, I love wholly. I burn for that person. And I was willing to ignite myself for you even if you would run from the fire to not get burned.
I knew all of this and I still jumped off the cliff knowing that you were not going to be waiting for me with arms wide open. I was born wild and curious, and a person like me cannot and will not live normally. No, I would rather live my life giving my heart to people who wont take care of it then live in a cage made out of the fear of being hurt. Because knowing that we are humans makes it easier to know that we are bound to spoil something great. You learn to expect it. You learn to forgive it. You learn to pick yourself up and keep on trying.
Knowing all this I still gave myself to you, knowing that you and I never stood a chance. But fire is stronger than anything else and I let it light my way.
