~Love is the fire on my bedroom floor
Two choices- stay or run out the door~

To run away is to fall.
To run away from possibility even if it is small.
This would make me sick.
My heart would die all too quick.

Possibility, chance, and hope
This can be a slippery slope.
But we must take the chance,
Because to die is to lose romance.

So I will never let myself fall higher,
I will always choose the fire.
Even if I am burned,
Then a broken heart is something I earned.

~So now ask yourself~

Will you face the fire?
Or will you become a fake liar?
Will you take a run down the hall?
Because I know I’d rather burn then fall.

I hope this makes sense and gives you something to think about.
