Im On Fire

please don't come near me
Because I'm on fire
Dont look surprised my baby
Youre the reason my skin burns so intensely
The ache inside that you leave me
The pulsing sensation that you gifted me is my burden to bear
Let my breathing be still let me inhale the air around us
Lock this moment in time the second I knew 
that my answer was you
I've never loved in a way that it hurts to be happy
You are a mystery on my emotions feelings never felt before
A constant burst of energy flows through me
The days shine brighter than the sun
You're so far away but I see you so close
I wish you see me the way I see you
But please don't come near me
Because you're the reason I'm on fire

Haha she kind of is, sometimes you get that overflow and you need to use that release valve and this was the first things that came out. But thank you for the compliment
