Stairs of Fire
"It's hot as hell in here...."
"It's always like this for me...."
She ascends the flames
He's left at the bottom
A staircase of light
Flames have ignited
She doesn't know
This time they are real
There is no saving her
His gift is letting her go
Her life has been this
Maybe they'll go out when she does.... Maybe....
