An Old Flame

I first tried to kill my old flame with my tears. It seems she knew the depth of my fears. She grab me and pulled me toward the fire. I knew inside she still my heart desire. I tried to escape and I fell at her feet. Lying there in agony and defeat. Die old flame is what I screamed to the fire. My old flame would not die in the fire. One part of me wants her to die in the flame. Can I actually say she is the blame. Her memories still haunts me in my sleep. For my love for her runs deep. Why can't I forget the past? And be free of her at last. I tried to over come my fears I tried to drown her with my tears. Her love will always be in my heart to keep. Now I just sit by the fire and watch my old flame and weep.
