No name

A fire's dancing in the dark

A long borderline spread from a tiny spark



Your over there; I'm over here

We're both shouting words that we can't hear








There's no way around it

This burning line goes on and on
The only way to get to you 's to go through the flame


Who's gonna cross first and who's to blame



I don't wanna risk all for this big time game








This blazing danger illuminates the sky




You believe if I don't cross my love's a lie



I'm sorry if your idea of love means we gotta die







Is that what this is; examine my feelings under a microscope

Is it a trick, a trap or are we on the same boat?



Is it love passion or something else




That's driving us to cut our safety ropes









Maybe we should both jump together; we're not alone



That ending seems to have a melancholy undertone







Our last kiss might not even be ours




If we cross and together take our last breathe



We might as well accept the fatal kiss of death









Maybe you want to be romeo but I'm not Juliet



And I'm not dying for you

I'm not ready yet

This is a poem for all teens in any kind of relationship. We don;t have to give in to peer pressure just because we are "in love" Thats not real love.
