Why do you want to die?
Be silent, and ask yourself.
Is it because of me?
Or rather, someone else?
Perhaps you charred yourself,
And it wasn�t really me.
You destroyed yourself,
And put the blame on me.
You made me out to be,
Someone you thought you�d see,
If only you�d squint your eyes,
I�d be who you�d want me to be.
But I am not that vision,
That shadow of a soul,
I am I, I am human,
I�m not some unfeeling ghoul.
You stab harsh words at me,
Through any way you can,
Displaying hurt feelings for all to see,
How do you call yourself a man?
You burnt yourself
From open flame,
The flame was I,
But I did the same.
I was scorched,
By your evil tongue,
It lashed out heavy words,
On my conscious, they hung.
You hurt yourself,
More than you hurt me,
I hope you realize,
You got in too deep.
Way over your head,
You were almost drowning,
In falsified love,
You had found me.
My flame was too hot,
I should have known,
I should have told you,
Or let it be shown.
We charred each other,
In the process of things,
A mistake I regret,
A problem that sings�
Deep down in my heart,
I know we were wrong,
We shouldn�t have loved,
One another so strong.
We are both to blame,
For our insecurities,
Our hearts are now charred,
But we need no pitying.
We did it ourselves,
No one else is to blame,
I did it to you, and to me,
You did it the same.
I�m sorry it had
To end in this way,
I didn�t see this happening,
So what else can I say?
I know you are hurt,
But so am I,
Don�t think this doesn�t char me,
Why would I lie?
For the pain I caused,
I sincerely apologize,
But through this experience,
We have become wise.
I will never let,
This happen again,
No matter the circumstances,
I do not care when.
We both walk away,
From one another, charred,
Both of our hearts are open,
And appearing to be scarred.
We have destroyed one another,
More than we both know,
And to all other people,
We won�t let it show.
Walk away, de-befriending,
We don�t know what to do,
Until we find someone else to char,
To make ourselves brand new.
