Fire

Flames forever lick your skin silently

They prey upon your bones and drip poison

Twisting throughout your veins congruently

Until they reach your heart burning within

Flickering throughout your once happy soul

They demolish your fears with dark potions

Your heart and soul become pitch black like coal

And gone, gone, gone.

Nothing can cause emotions.

Your friends might try to help, but they cannot

The heartless beast you have become is strong

Lovers cannot stay near, family is naught

The fire within your soul planted a bomb

That ticks slowly as the flames devour

Until your body is an empty tower
