The fire that is my love still dimly burnt inside me as the year ended. I hadn't seen you in what seemed like a lifetime until the day. The day when I saw you and the dimly lit fire inside explodes causing the fire to spread everywhere in my body and I relized that my love for you was like a zombie. I thought they were dead but they soon came back to life to eat me up. I looked into your icy blue eyes and suddenly I was engulfed into a sea of mixed emotions. I love being around you but the tension between us leads me astray. I want to talk to you but my anxiety is spinning out of controll so I do not. I love you but I'm terrified of you. I'm not terrified of you, I'm terrified of what you can to me but not physically but emotionally. I'm terrified of the fact that you feelings about me change how I act. I'm terrified of the fact that you can totally controll every aspect of my life with the lift of a fingure. I'm terrier that this fire inside me with burn so brightly that my body with be engulfed and I will burn out. My ashes vlowly in the wind and into the air you breat, this is the closest I've been to you and it feels like paradise. My fire burns brightly and everyone thinks they're pouring water onto the fire but they are pouring gallons of gasoline into me. They are fueling the fire and I cannot controll it. The fire is widespread and can't be stop. I am consumed with these emotions but for the most part...I love it.
