In or Out.

a girl who is unsure if she wants to stay in a fiery relationship, or does she want to jump into the unknown world of women.

The house is on fire,
Our house.
It all seems to be happening In slow motion...
-But it's happening all the same.
The angry flames search the house,
They leave no hidden crack unburnt.
Everything I've ever owned,
Everything I am...
-was.

And I'm stood there,
On the window ledge.
I stare back at the fire,
As it tears the place apart.
They shout my name to jump,
Promising to catch me.
But I don't know them.
What would happen,
-If I just, jumped?
Unsure if I even wanted to...

Should I let it swallow me,
With the memories and the photographs.
Should I burn as the girl who lived here,
And die as his.

I look down again,
Completely torn, but not completely..
I would jump,
I want to jump, I think.
But I am so scared.
I am so scared to live,

As hers.
