Inferno

I can?t believe I?m feeling something as strong as this. Time has slowly passed me by and I cannot escape this pain any longer. Something deep inside of me is building up, something that I have been longing to set free. There are limits behind the horizon, many things that I wish to stride for. Unfortunately, there is nothing I am able to reach from this imprisoning light I call a soul. Something, someone, calls out to me; I can hear him screaming my name. There is no way I can graze my fingertips along this face, no way of being able to reply to his one time of need. I merely stand there, my eyes falling onto the blazing fire aflame on the distant land. I hold my breath and reveal a chilling cloud of smoke, the temperature freezing everything along with the oxygen I long to breathe. Being pulled deeply by this wave of pleasure and destruction; being swept away by this feeling called love. There isn?t a way I can let go of this emotion, it merely pulls be farther and farther into the descending sea; the burning flame far beyond my reach. Faster and faster I fall into the depths of green; my breath growing shorter as I reach for the surface, a reflection of your smiling echoing back down at me. There is no way of stopping it; it is happening.

I?m becoming a slave to love.

My silent calls of pain and bliss float up to the surface, only to make a soft sound of water. Nothing can be heard any longer, you merely look down at me from the surface and watch me drown in my own sea of emotions; not even returning a hand to receive. Just words of silent betrayal; tears of blood and mere bliss. Even though this was my last moment, even though I know that I will never see you again, I still long to forgive you. I long to reach out and hold you, to let you know that I will return home. I will be back inside of your flaming embrace soon.

Time flies by as the image of you grows darker, slowly fading away into my memory; burning its path on the tears falling from my auburn eyes. I felt as if I was falling into an endless sky; something I wasn?t used to comprehending. My life was being taken away sweetly; in the loss of a freely falling seduction of ache.

Slowly, my mind fades back as I inhale the taste of tears; the sea of lies. I shake my head as my feet finally strike the bottom, wishing I was facing the surface. Fear of Death fell over me, and soon, I fell to my knees and surrendered my life to the enrapturing shadows.

I open my eyes to a warm sensation; blinking slowly as I realized my location. I shook my head in disbelief of where I was standing; on the edge of the earth, facing the flames. I couldn?t help but smiled as I turned around to face toy on the other side, staring back at me with one hand outstretched. I wink playfully and cross my arms, then falling gracefully backward to greet the crazing inferno beyond the stars.
