DRAWN TO THE FLAME

Your hands are dirty
You touched the stove
Drawn to the flame
The heat, the glow. 

The darker, the better
You couldn’t let go
You went too far
So far below. 

Deeper and deeper
There is no return 
Drawn to the madness
You longed for the burn. 

The deafening thunder
The surge thru your veins
The height of emotion
The power, the pain. 

The craving, desire 
The passion, the rush
You can never go back
To the way that it was.
