The Poet's Corner

Burn With Me, Hell is on Fire

location: 18th Century London, with a quill and parchment scribbling

mood: artistic

music: Dramatic Phantom of the Opera music

Burn with me, darling

Hell is on fire

Flames flicker and die

And you do, too

Can you feel the heat?

Can you even be beat?

Scorched and exposed

What will you do, my dear?

The demons are waiting

Cooking you tender, and

Eating you all up.

Run with me, darling

Heavan is flying

Up, up, up and away

People break down and cry

And so do you

Do you hear their tears?

Do you swallow the fears?

Broken and bleeding

Just what do you do, my love?

The ghosts are waiting

Calling your madness, and

Taking you with them

Die with me, darling

Earth is rotting

Down to the core

Still blushing and shy

Oh, so are you.

Are you feeling the pain?

Are you still hiding shame?

Dead and gone

Oh, what will I do, my heart?

You are still waiting

Tearing me up, and

Forcing me down

Burn with me, darling, Hell is on fire...
