Burn Me

rebmasters

Should we wander?
So little do we know what waits for us out there
in the cruel cold.
I left
to sink or swim.

Myriad stories begin to unfold.
Far better to burn me
just to be sure,

better safe than sorry,
I’ve no desire to return,
I would never hate you;

in this brief existence
you were meaning;

a stake too high,
so light it on fire
or throw me from a cliff
& see if I can fly.

I will traverse the universe
to fathom you,
my endless one.

Lover, rogue, gentleman, demon;
magic you from crooked fingers
so we can be cursed together

  • L. B. Mek

    when love is so far out of reach
    for a lost generation
    all they can do, is fantastically dramatize - it
    as a fantasy concept, so devoid of realism
    we can hardly recognise, what they're talking about...
    what a pathetic regression
