Fire

You have me in the palm of your hand

As if I was a lighter

You can flick me

And light me on fire

With this burning desire I keep coming back for more.

This is all something you’ve done before

Why must I fall for it;

These are words you’ve said before

I’m not the first,

But I’ve forgotten the main objective

You have this burning flame inside of me 

although I can’t seem to ash out the thoughts of you

As you constantly linger in my mind

I let you light me on fire every time my name escapes your lips
