Heart Afire

My heart was afire
My flesh burned
Inside I had a desire
I never had learned
That you'd be my end
My disaster and ruin
My heart would never mend
From the beckoning doom
I ignored the warnings
Of a danger manifest
I was lost to your lure
I could never know
Yours was a heart that would never be
One that would be welcoming me
To come close
And to love
So let me burn, to ash
And I'll never be this foolish again
For tears can never be enough
To put out a fire from love
Time to move on
These words are my last
