"I Am The Fire"
listen,
i am not someone
who is easy to love.
i am not someone
who is to be taken
lightly
and most of all;
i am not someone
to burn.
for i am the fire,
my soul is on fire
and everything i lived to
touch
becomes one with
the fire.
so ask yourself
if you are willing
to burn,
because the moment
you open yourself to me,
i will have no choice
but to scorch everything
that defines you.
and without regret
i will devour
and i will leave nothing
behind.
