Fire Burns
hope you feel the fire burn
the fire that once lit up
the lights in our hearts
is now the fire surrounding
the broken pieces
of my shattered heart
this is not a stupid
cheesy love poem
it's a vulnerable explosive
of the hurt that's been hiding
for too long
hope you feel the fire burn
burn inside
dissolving into regret
so I'm not who you thought I was
and you're not who you used to be
flaming hot mess we are
insecure about ourselves
remembering only what was
empty voids are all that remain
