(AN: I was listening to the Cure rather heavily when I wrote this one.)

Burn

I feel the burn yet again, today.
Again comes the pain, when I saw them yesterday.
They were vital, like a pair of dove.
So happy, she looked, spoon feeding her love.

Every night I feel the burn, scream your name.
Every night I burn, feeling my world end.
Every night I burn, screaming the animal scream.
Listening to music with depressing theme.

I have to tell you how I feel, to save me.
Even if it ruins our existing friendship, see.
I can't stand the next bit of advice told.
"Don't talk to her again, after." I'd been told.

That was after a previous heartbreak years back. When the world fizzured and the sky turned black.
Every night I feel the burn, my heart in pain.
Thinking of you and him happy again.

I've nothing left to me now.
I have to tell you, but how?
My inner light has gone, leaving me a shell.
A shell of my former self, remnant from hell.

In three days you'll go to his house.
Will that mean later you'll be his spouse?
That nightmare haunted me for most of this season.
When we talk, as friends, I'm happy beyond reason.

My little oasis in the desert I inhabit.
Then you go to him, I'm abandoned to lonely habit.
I'm lost, forlorn, and destroyed.
Of my pain, my room mates are annoyed.

I can't pretend to be happy for you any longer.
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger.
I'll have to tell you how I feel for you.
Maybe lose the friendship, true.

Acceptance is an impossible thing for me.
"Destroyed and devastated, is he."
Can be said of my state of emotions and mind.
For me, love has another reason to be maligned.

My faith in love dies yet again.
In a cloak of fire and pain.
I wonder why God wants me to feel this way.
What have I done? Is this my price to pay!!
