Suicidal Fire
I started the fires
The burning city before me
I started the scorched lives
With a match
Looking to the sky
Looking down
Looking to the past
Looking to my fate
At the hands of fire
I look to where it all started
The death of a loved one
The death in the arms of the helpless
I'm looking at my own making through glass
I look to the sky
I wonder why
I look down
I look at myself
I look to the past
I know it's for sure
I look to my fate
To be enticed in flames
I look at the match one last time
I strike it against the pad
It ignites the saving flame
The flame spreads toward me
I look through the glass at the ruined city
Though the rain tries to save it
The fumes ever more rising
I go to a corner and hide from my last thoughts
My last fears fixing to be consumed
I look away from myself
The water is rising above me
I'm in another place
I'm sinking beneath the waves
I look through the glass
I look through myself
I look through my reflection
The tears of fear
Fear cannot conquer this feeling keeping me here
The water level is rising
I am sinking in my own making
I look away from myself
The edge looms nearer
With me stepping ever closer
My last place to be is here
I think of what has brought me here
Slowly thinking back with each memory
I look back to where it started
The death of a loved one
The death in the arms of the helpless
My last embrace to the living love
The first embrace to the living Hell
The bottom of the abyss
Invites me to fall within
The blackness matches my life
The light of the abyss vanished
My fears to go to the unknown rise
My wanting to go to the unknown dwindles
I have to die or embrace this living Hell
My heart's bled so much grief
The day that suicide took your life
My fears are justified
Yet I come closer to the edge
You're always with me when I dream
But I can't sleep my life away
Dying for you is the only way
To be with you, eternally
The edge falls farther away
The abyss comes nearer
I look up to the sky
I look down
My last sight to see
The darkness that I keep
The flames inch closer in
My world is in flames
My world burns beside me
The flames are finding me hiding
I look to my fate
To be enticed in flames
I look to the past
I only see memories of pain
Reoccurring thoughts of you
The affects of death sinking in
I look into the flames reflecting fear in my eyes
I look one last time to the sky
The sky is on fire
I look one last time down
Beneath me is a burning Hell
I look one last time to the past
I see the starting of the fire
I look one last time to my fate
The flames reaching for me
This burning fate is a mistake, the last one to make
The rain is still pouring
I look out the glass
I see my shining face
I look into the flames
I see my reflection dimming
I look into the flames
I see you starring back
I see you disappointed
I wish I could take it back
But my love keeps me here
I wish I could feel the rain
But my love keeps me here
You were always with me
Never knew that last embrace lasted
I look into the flames
My eyes reflect them
They are the last things to see
As I burn into a memory
I started the fire
That has taken me beneath the waves
I started the fire
That has taken me into the abyss
I started the fire and died in my own making
I started the fire for all the wrong reasons
My worst mistake takes me away
I started the fire of suicide
I look away from myself

You know I read this twice simply because I liked it very much..You have a strong way of writing down anything that comes into your head..
I started the fire of suicide
I look away from myself
A great set of lines right there..You have my utmost admiration. |
