Your a misery I should avoid.
But your mystery draws me in.
A mystery I want to solve.
Everything about you screams
"Turn around, leave."
But I don't take the warning signs.
I ignore the red flags and continue.
Continue walking towards the smoke
That will eventually lead to a fire.
A fire that will consume every fiber of me.
Blinded by my naïve love for you,
I run towards the fire,
Mistaking the blaze for burning passion.
Before I realize my error,
The flame surrounds me.
The only escape from you
Is to get burned.
You blister my skin as I run away.
You left an unmendable scar on my heart.
Something I will never forget.
Our happy memories got washed out.
Now I only remember
The pain you caused.
The tears I cried.
But I can't blame all of this on you.
It's my fault too.
I walked into the fire in the first place.
