dark fire smoldering
within my soul
starving for fuel
to make it whole
hot, searing heat
within my veins
needing to give
receiving only pain
dark and lonely
it hungers for care
someone to feed
the fire in there
dark and evil
striving to be seen
buried as if
just a bad dream
scorching me
with silent heat
knowing I
will never meet
a soul with
fire such as mine
a soul with passion
as dark and divine
longing, needing to
share the flame
with he who smolders
just the same
unable to speak
or to cry out
buried inside
a silent shout
do i have enough
strength to try?
no, deep inside me
the embers die
fire turns to ice
in my heart
crystals forming
ripping me apart
building up
those icy walls
protecting me from
scary falls
walls of ice
as strong as stone
protecting me
keeping me alone
content in my prison
my walls, my jail
making my own
living hell
no hope
no giving
why do i
go on living?
small embers of flame
protected by ice
i see a spark
can i be enticed?
i kick and fight
i scream and cry
maybe that flame
didn't quite die
warily i venture
away from my home
to a self i thought
was dead and gone
his eyes on fire
this mysterious man
he touches my fortress
the embers he fans
with lava heat he
melts the walls
turning the ice to
waterfalls
games we play
and secrets we find
dark fire burning
deep in my mind
we run in the night
side by side
never again
the need to hide
he feeds the fire
in my soul
once again
making me whole
i share my dark flame
and blend it with his
we fall into
a passionate abyss
burning passion
making the flames higher
feeding and sharing my
beautiful dark fire
