Playing With Fire

by xToBeWithYoux   Mar 17, 2009


Blue-eyed wonder, you make me melt
every time you walk this way.
This can't go on much longer, baby,
if you're fed up, you only gotta say.

Dirty little secrets, I have plenty.
You happen to be just one.
He doesn't know about us, baby,
I'm only having a bit of fun.

Playing with fire, it gives me thrills,
heaven right in the middle of hell.
It's the same for you, isn't it baby?
Can I trust you not to tell?

No, I couldn't. Here we stand.
I shouldn't have tried to pretend,
we could never work, baby.
So now we've reached the end.

I suppose this is goodbye,
my hands are burnt, branded a liar.
Don't apologise now, you baby.
This is what you get for playing with fire.

    I absolutely love this poem. I like how you penned this forbidden love and your thoughts on it. I agree with Aureus

    heaven right in the middle of hell

    ^^^ This like stood out for me too. I like the way you express and phrase it.

    Well though, having to cheat behind someone's back maybe thrilling, but in the end we only get ourself burned when the truth surface up.

    Excellent Job
    5/5

    Most of this made me chuckle... but I don't think that was your intention, sorry. lol

    I quite liked the line...

    <heaven right in the middle of hell.>

    Very nicely put. :) You did a good job with this piece. The rhyming was spot on.

    5/5 :)
