Burn Me Down

A fiery love poem.

Burn Me Down

 

I can feel it,

Coming from somewhere deep inside my chest.

I’m not sure what it is.

All I know is that I’ve never felt anything like it before.

 

Fire’s, flooding straight through every one of my veins,

And she’s the only one to blame.

There’s not another girl out there,

That could do the same thing.

 

Now I can never seem to catch my breath when she’s around.

It’s like there’s smoke rising from straight inside me.

And I think I’m starting to form a guess about what this feeling might be.

This burning hot fire that’s fueled by my desire.

 

I didn’t think it was possible,

To enjoying going up in flames,

But I’m loving it,

And these scorch marks where she laid her lips prove that I’ll never be the same.

 

And maybe this is all one big mistake,

It might be self-destructive to pour gasoline of the fire she’s got lit up in my heart.

But I think I stopped caring the first time I held her hand,

When she sparked the love that would go on to burn me down for the rest of my life, so just burn me down baby.
