HUGS OF FIRE

Breathing.
Clenching.
Punching.
Shouting.

Fire from hell,
Sizzling upwards.
Consuming me.

Holding my waist,
Like hands roaming around my skin.

Burning fingertips,
Squeezing my lungs.

Hypnotic voice,
Leading me on.

Blanket coverings,
Fiery safety.

Nails digging into skin.
Trying to stop the fiery friend taking over.

Control disappears every time.
Every time I let IT take hold.

Leashes,
Won't tame it.
Piecing the skin,
Won't tame it.

Hugging me,
IT takes over.

Thrashing and fighting.
Screaming and carving.

Inside the deep shadows,
The good side stays alive.
Watching everything fall apart.

All consuming fire.
Nothing stops it from growing higher.
Waiting for the flames to die down.
