I think my heart stopped beating
just for a split second
when I realized I was to blame for your lost
I felt my skin burning
the flicker in my physique
the realization of your smile
How could I be so blind?
so sightless to not see you
Did I reach my goal?
Did I finally pushed myself so far into the abysm?
wanting nothing more than your touch that I lurked on the shadows
Not wanting to be touched so I wouldn’t get burned
The irony of the fire
as far as you run
it always catches your soul
And I loved the warmth touch of your skin
Recrimination of one’s tears
the beauty of not knowing the pain
and the pain of realizing it
Not a thousand words could amend it
and I’m the only one to blame
Was it the lack of fire?
Was it the abundance of the ocean?
Nevertheless I blame your ignorance as well
I guess I should have screamed louder
but you made me feel like I couldn’t be heard
felt like drowning in a rain deck
Tell me, my love
my flame
Was it the fire that killed us?
the oceans were so cold and deep
Or was it the warmth of your skin that made me surrender?
