a flame burning out

a labyrinth made of loneliness

closing in with waves of pain crashing

a shard of glass and wrists painted red

until the bedsheets were no longer white

a certainty of fate everything was over

giving up the last strength to fight

a purpose to live came in a person’s name

flew by and changed darkness forever

a spark exploded in the pitch black maze

something burned along in my chest

a miracle that was never spoken of

chasing light and nothing’s the same again

a vision in haze appearing and fading

trying to find the light in all dark

a glowing flame you led me upon

lost in your voice i lit myself in flames

a matchstick and your lips were sparks

hold them right here just a little longer

a smile and eyes that flicker with fire

burning the pieces of me inside-out

a scatter of ashes from a shattered heart

you trampled over in search of

a nother to be yours but never to keep

ignite and you do it all over again

a firework in the darkest night

you came into my life

a light that led me out of the labyrinth

falling into a deeper infinity of abyss

a scar would never heal but i could not

have asked for a better miracle
