Chance’s Fire

The Ashes Still Whisper Your Name

A life full of pain, no one willing to stay. All I remember is this tiring ache.

You, you came to me with fire, you came to me with a voice so loud it burnt love into my soul. I had to have this to myself, it mustn’t die or burn out.

I gave my all and you gave more, we scratched and clawed we howled and cried. I felt things that brought me to life, I longed for your fire to always be mine.

You gave me a hope that I had never once felt, you showed me a place I couldn’t call Hell.

I lie alone pretending your here. I can feel your fingers running through my hair.

The love that we have is so deep I must rip it out. It’s a hurt that you caused, you swore I’d never feel doubt!

You said that you loved me we’d always burn bright, but the fire is fading there’s no end in sight.

I’m running to catch you… I ran out of time.

Hopelessly romantic, tortured soul. Learning to write through all the darkness. Change the narrative? I hope.

I see the beauty….. I need to feel it.
