Flames of Desire

Peer inside my soul,it's burred deep within its hole. looking inside my mind, masked by all the pain and all the crime. Nothing here to find, seek the new beginning at the end of mine. There's no shame in crying,it's not as cold as dieing. I try to mask my grief,by putting all my faith within my feet. Trying to stand my ground but everything I love comes crumbling down. My happiness is placed, deep within the surface almost as if erased.. Tear comes streaming out, leaving the trail of self doubt. Place your hand within the fire, the true fate of desire. Her smile leaves sparks, burning holes in the dark. Love is the fire, that fills you with wild desire Death rips us apart, a condescending art that breaks the heart. Magic turned to tragic. Fire turned to ash..we always seem to crash.
