Climbing Up Out Of The Ashes

I Would Like To Lie ....

you never did anything other than save me,

when I was drowning in my own waters, when I was falling off the hill I spent so long building,

when I wrecked the walls that had crashed down all around me.

pulling me out of the water, taking me in your arms after I fell,

holding all the bricks of my crumbling foundation in your two hands.

That is what I would have liked to have said when they asked me why I still love you,

but the truth is you held my face under the water, pushed me down the hill,

and took a sledgehammer to the wall I cried over being destroyed.

so why do I still love you? why does a fly race to the flame that will destroy him?

that's why, you are the flame and I am the fly. 

burn me, I want you to.
