Lodge Fire
Something was igniting between us.
At first I fought off the flames because I know what it feels like when the air gets too much and I wasn’t ready to be choked again.
So I held my breath for as long as I could, but even I couldn’t deny that this fire was becoming indistinguishable
So I took my hand down from my mouth.
Quickly I became engulfed in the flames and
All I could do now was to allow myself to let you in
and hope that I’d make it out alive.
