burning barn

you would be remiss to not feel as i do

your words drip

       the 

    sweetest

  honey

i am starved for these moments

where you and i are encased in glass while the 

world that doesn't even know you and i exist

walk by in the purest of ignorance.

we do not have feelings

we are nothing to them

but you are everything to me.

we drove past a burning barn and for a split 

second i realized you're the fire that warms 

my soul, and the flame that destroys it.

your presence permeates my every thought.

your smile melts every ounce of willpower I have

within my once strong fortress.

i would rather be burned by you than loved by anyone else.
