The day I laid my eyes on you I was doomed
Trapped like a ranger in a fire with no escape
Because at every turn it was you
The flames had your eyes, your smile, your face
Trapping me in your grace
The smoke hissed your name
Engraving it at the forefront of my brain
A constant reminder that for me it's only ever been you
The one I crave and desire beyond measure
The only ember my heart refuses to smother
No matter how much I tried to escape
The fire seared you into my brain,
My heart,
My soul,
Proving to me that without you I can't be whole
So every fragment of you I'll greedily consume
Even though it feels like inhaling fumes
Each tearing a part of my soul
Stripping me bare to bone
Constricting my lungs against the oxygen of sanity
Leaving me at war with my own humanity
I crave you even if it burns
I'd turn to ashes if it means I could have you
I'm willing to lose my heart as long as I own yours
You're the one I want even if it means I'd burn for all eternity
