It's everywhere. The heat, the pulsing blinding light. I feel it push against the corners of my mind. It burns, threatening to overcome me completely. Melting into my skin, the smell of burning flesh wafting up to my noes. I attempt to breathe in, nothing but smoke and raining ashes contaminating my already parched and charred lips. A scream crawls up my throat, but it's not something I hear. I see it, flames raging from my open mouth, licking at the air around it, expanding till I'm completely engulfed by it.

The pain is like nothing I've ever felt before. The agonizing blaze devouring me from the inside out, searing through my vines. Everything is white blue, blend in and transforming into vibrant yellows, orange and reds. I've snapped, like a stick in cracked in two, only I didn't think I'd combust. Blistered, scarred, blinded and suffering eternally by this sea of flames raging through me being. I find a sudden calmness in the depths of my soul, while this violent element consumes my physical host. And suddenly, with no warning, I perish. What I once was reverts to nothing but black particles exploding out from within the flames, which kiss the night sky. This is what I get, for letting my heart love. Letting the emotions eat me up with desire and longing for you. Your heart... Is a fragile thing.
