Beneath The World

puzzle piece

maybe it was meant to be that way
fire and hellfire
colliding in one body

i was water
until you burnt my soul
taking every litre of purity out of me

it didn't make sense to me
water was supposed to solve all

but i guess knowing you
who just barged into my life
opening my eyes
to see the truth
rot the river

you convinced me
you burnt me
you left me in shreds
you blocked the light

you lit me up,
failed a few times
failed a few more

until you did it
i became the fire you wanted

i burnt my own hand,
but you said it was okay

so i took your hand,
you took mine
we shared the pain,
only you made it worse

and together,
we are one

only you are stronger
