When He Gets Close to Me

by *Charisma*   Jun 11, 2007


The heat could warm me from a mile away
With each step towards, grew the flames
I prayed to stay wrapped in his arms,
Trapped in his heart, locked with his charms.

What I felt couldn't be explained
But seeing him with her...everything changed.
When he gets close to me, I'm cold as ice.
On the past, I don't even think twice.

What hurts is he didn't do anything wrong.
He was never mine. He didn't belong.
I have no true reason to hurt like I do.
Yet, that lacks the comfort to pull me through.

I want fireworks to burn in my soul
But when they do, they only leave holes.
I'm doomed to feel nothing in my heart.
'Cause when he gets close to me, I fall apart.

    Wow. This was very nice and I loved this stanza.

    I want fireworks to burn in my soul
    But when they do, they only leave holes.
    I'm doomed to feel nothing in my heart.
    'Cause when he gets close to me, I fall apart.

    The fireworks part gave beautiful imagry even if it is in a weird way!
    Great Job!
    5/5
