Burn
The notches on the wall,
Are in my skin.
I’ve carved your name,
On my heart.
There’s no going back,
One you’ve claimed something
Made it yours
Tamed it.
I built your cage out of regrets
Now I’ll build my own out of sorrow.
We can’t be in the same space
Always
We’re like two magnets trying to touch
But never reaching
The closer we come
The more the air hisses
Like the energy in our bodies
Can’t be contained.
Pretty soon
If we’re not careful
We’ll destroy the world.
And we’ll burn like flames
Never dimming
Just two shooting stars
Incinerating everything
We touch.
