Burn


I am kindling.

You?

My fire. 

I ache for your touch.

 

Ignite yourself in my body,

burn a picture in my mind,

show me something beautiful;

counteract what I feel inside.

 

Burn me ‘til i’m ash.

I’ll float away in the breeze.

Damage so great,

only the finest eyes can see.

 

Together we burn,

kindling and fire. 

I keep you going,

you aid my expire.
