Fire

A new sensation has entered my head
I've become confused
I don't know what I'm doing
feeling lost and used
people swarm around me
I lose focus of the world
losing touch of everything
I'm just a teenage girl
running without reason
I don't have a clue
I don't know who I am
I don't know what to do
time goes by so slowly
silence fills my ears
lost in my confusion
I wonder if I'm still here
I look into the shadows
trying to find my memories
but I fear they're lost forever
like a long forgotten melody
locking out the world
locking in my heart
never showing them my tears
I watch my world drift apart
late at night when it's dark
I slowly close my eyes
my world disappears
my shadowy paradise
whispers echo in my mind
I can't get away
the shadows slowly disappear
as night turns into day
the fire burns so beautifully
if only I could feel
the warmth rolls off the flames in waves
as my secrets are revealed
like a song of hope and wonder
drops of rain from the sky
slowly, beautifully, my happy song
like a comforting lullaby
lost in a mixture of black and gray
slipping into a noisy haze
sitting in the pouring rain
I remain in my unbroken gaze
broken inside and deep within
they don't hear a word
I silently scream out in the rain
but I am never heard
tired of giving into them
wanting to be understood
sick of being ignored
I'd run away if I could
deep into the forest at night
watching the blue moon rise
fire burns inside my heart
as I see his beautiful eyes
rain falls from the starry sky
fog and mist surround me
I no longer feel anything
lost in an endless sea
my heart silently drifts away
reaching my soul's desires
his eyes burn deep into my heart
as I drift into the fire
