The dream that lights the torch of jealousy

The dream, the night
And the fight inside.
Its all too livid and bright
As the topic is tossed aside.

But its enough to awake
The feelings that subside.
The fire is roaring to break
And I have no sense of time.

I cannot bend the tide
With emotions denied.
I'm stuck in thoughts of pride
And thoughts of fear slide.

The fuel seeps down and glides
Onto the empty torch.
It lights the jealous ember
And then it makes it scorch.

But I can't be lost like this
When all I want to do is kiss
The lips my lover owns
And not feel like a drone.

I've flown and landed
Crumbled and risen.
The Phoenix has handed
The key to inner prison
And I'm walking out unbranded.

I shouldn't think of other's touching
And embracing what I love most
And what my hand is clutching
Not opening for ghosts.

And the dream that lit me up
Is now long forgotten.
I've forced myself to stop
Thinking of the rotten.

The very last spark of jealousy is dying
Now that my senses are returning.
In one night of dreaming, flying
I'd forgotten what i was yearning.
