Fire

The orange and yellow flames

Burn inside my brain

I can't forget

The way you used to say my name

 

The fire from inside me

You had a first glimpse

But I guess what you saw

You didn't agree

With this fire burning inside me

 

I tried to convince you to stay

You said you couldn't be with me

I called out your name

And then you were gone

As if blown away with the wind

Washed away with the tide

And to this day I still call out your name

 

I stand by the sea

The wind blowing against me

My hair flying around me

You're gone

Suddenly this flame inside me is blazing

Why couldn't you just see

That there was good inside me

 

I scream out your name

I am dazed

I pull my hair

My voice is hoarse

 

I cannot forget the way

You would say my name

Or the way your lips felt on my

Come back to me

I cannot breathe

The sea surrounding me

Is black, black as can be

Just like your eyes

I'm swaying

The water beating against me

Shocking cold

 

This flame inside me is burning\

I can't forget you

I throw my hands into the sky

"Please just come back to me!"

My screams surround me

They can't be heard above the roar of the sea

 

The sea

My love is the sea

An infinite, vast body of moving emotions

It's everything that it needs to be

Why can't you love me!

 

What did I do?

What did I say?

This flame inside me

Is stronger than you could possibly think

 

Fire, it burns inside my brain

It hurts, everytime I hear your name

Yet in darkness while I lay

 

I can't help but whisper your name

The pain, the burning flooding through me

As I say

"Please come back to me"

 

This fire within me 

Burns brighter than the sun

It burns 

It longs

For you to be with me

 

Only you

Can tame this fire in me
