Effigy

[New]

Here's my fire, dedicated to a flame
A fling blooming intensely through pillars of fire
Entwined and enraptured, enmeshed and stuck
Trying to be separate through the vision of liars

How, as I ask, do you split the truth
From the subjective passions of two who love?
My God may not be yours whom you "fire" at a whim
By my humanity should be enough to shine from above

My sanity compromised, split at Summer's end
Watch you lose all that you were
You became a drone of what I oppose
From a brave lioness, now a drooling cur

So now I write these words to burn what we were
And to disperse these ashes into what we are
You'll be mindlessly lying to hundreds
As I'll be careful, bearing your scar

Way to go! Fire is such a great metaphor for love... so hot and passionate yet so effin' dangerous! %)

Here's my fire, dedicated to a flame

Trying to be separate through the vision of liars

How, as I ask, do you split the truth

My God may not be yours whom you "fire" at a whim
By my humanity should be enough to shine from above

My sanity compromised, split at Summer's end
Watch you lose all that you were
You became a drone of what I oppose
From a brave lioness, now a drooling cur

So now I write these words to burn what we were
And to disperse these ashes into what we are
You'll be mindlessly lying to hundreds

Thank you. It seems the most poetic memories are the most dangerous.
