Flaming Rebirth

Fire burns my soul as darkness grows within The darkness grows deep in my heart I look normal and I seem normal But something goes wrong Then the darkness seeps out of my heart The darkness flows out of the wounds The wounds that rest on my wrists My body drops to the cold floor The warm blood moves out over the tile Darkness now free mixes with the blood But blood seeps away into the cracks Leaving the darkness behind Darkness surrounds my body Coldly it enters my lungs I take my dieing breath Darkness caresses my burning soul It offers to take away my pain I give my soul to the darkness My body rises as I am reborn Cold eyes look upon my reflection
