Burn me to a cinder
Render unto ash
Pointed words as tinder
Vaporize the past
Smolder under skin
Conflagrate this empty vessel
We stood together
In patchwork waste
Hours, days we spent aflame
Now lost forever
No more to gain
Towers that we built in vain
As one possessed, my bright obsession
Suffer this for your transgression
The pyre built will soon be feasting on your bones
In retribution for the wicked things you’ve always done
I threw my barbs at you like flares across the sea
I could never forget you, so tell me how you forget me?
How could I have known?
How could I forgive?
How can I forget the things you did?
Burn these memories from me
Replace my heart with stormy sea
