Self Inflicted

The flames have died down yet I still feel their sting,

The burns, the scars, the pain; the thoughts you still bring,

I try to hide from the sun in hopes that I heal,

So as not to burn again, so as not to feel,

I run and leap out so that i will not fall,

Shade from the ledge is no protection at all,

The ending came fast, with nowhere soft to land,

My mind can not hold my legs, i barely stand,

The rocks are more pain than any before,

Self inflicted, from a lover no more.
