Flames Inside Me
April 6, 2011
Death dragged me into a deep well of darkness
I cried and begged to be set free
And then I realized that this was the moment I was waiting for
I kissed death on his thin blood stained lips
And then my soul burned in a mighty fire
And then I realized that hell is hell when there is no love
I missed you and remembered I cheated you
I cheated on you with death
And then I realized that when you will be at peace
These flames inside me will be a rain of flowers
