Set Fire to the Ocean

Burning this inhalation

Through to my core

Creating the cancers

The manifestations in my body

Hunger

I love the word

Creating a self destructive state

In my lean starvation

With the fire burning

The life is safe beneath it

But on the surface

My blood is boiling

The raging sun has ravished

My insides

The moon is crying a million deaths

When I can see your sad broken eyes

With sorrow, pain and shame

They look nothing like the eyes

That used to look at me

The way they did

I could create a global thunderstorm

With lightening

To kill that fire

But I don’t think I will

I’ll just let the fire of desire

Feed off my potent oxygen
