•metamorphism of me• [finished]

burning

a fire burns within me,
a confident,
strong blaze,
its warm tongues
flicker right below
my skin.
it engulfs the
thought of you,
and it withers like
paper in my inferno.
melts the binds
that once held me to you.
the ash of you floats
solemnly into the past.
every day i become
more of me,
and less of you.
