Englufed


There is fire in the coals of your eyes, unmatched by any other I've come to find, and if I were to place my faith in anything, it'd be given to that searing stare you sustain. The fire, though it burns me, does not touch my skin, but ignites the chamber of my heart and burns me from within. Should the flame expire, the smoke might stain my breath. but if your fire is true, let it burn me to death.
