Suffocating

Every time
you leave,
I notice that
I hold my breath
until you return.

But now,
I sit here just
suffocating
and it really
fucking burns.

Here I Burn

Strike a match
Watch it smoke.
Hold my hand
Pull me close.

Whisper to me
What I want to hear.
Then take that match
And place it here.

Push it hard
Into my skin.
Watch me scream
Then watch me grin.

Burning

I've been 
Keeping everyone around me
Alive and warm...

But in return
I've been lighting myself on fire
Every day...
