Burn Me Alive

 

I see you there

Staring at me with that deadly glare A flame in your hand  I'm a sinner to your command The oil soaked rag  Shoved down my throat  Poisons me as you gloat Why can't you see The pain you are causing me? Will I be okay? Live to see another day? Will you cry? Or are you dead inside? Will I breathe? A breath of torment and gasoline? Will I survive ? When you burn me alive? Your steady hand Grazes my chest You told me  I didn't try my best How was I to know That you would fuck up my reality As a tears rolls down I face my fatality  Why can't you see The pain you are causing me? Will I be okay? Live to see another day? Will you cry? Or are you dead inside? Will I breathe? A breath of torment and gasoline? Will I survive ? When you burn me alive? - Monica L. G
