An Angel Consumed By Fire


An angel unconsumed I said through his warm fire, our love will never expire... 

However, I didn't know your hands would conspire to become my unwanted fire...

RED,BLACK,BLUE

RED, BLACK,BLUE

Now I am always surrounded by a sad blue aura hue...

I'm so tired of your fire...

People wonder how an angel like me can be consumed by such fire...

Little did they know, I fell in love with his warm fire and this is what I desired, but he hid in a cage the real fire...

The RAGE...

It can come out as easily as turning a page...

I wear his burning marks, the bruises, like everyday attire...

He will never be all that I require to keep my love...

I am an angel taken over by your burning fire...

Our fires are not the same and mines almost went out and yours is to blame...

You coward of a man...

Against me you always raise your hand and lie a promise that it will never happen again...

But it always does just like it was pretend...

I will never love you again...

But I assure you my "friend" that I will not begin to act as if all these years my blood hasn't been mixed with my tears...

But then again...

I am an angel consumed by his fire and it hurts so much I have to retire...

His warm fire...

My love for it and him have finally expired...
