Playing with fire
By Artanis
You set fire to something to die
to release yourself from this terrible
world of lies
and you watch your body burn
the fire so beautiful in your eyes
you can never blame yourself
the world perpetuated this flame
this pain
yet you thank them over and over
for the fire
that set you free
Now, as you breathe in the air
of another world
you see
you caused the pain
and perpetuated th flame
the fire that killed your mortal prison
and haunted your soul
in another life,
in another world
