I’m the girl even your friends won’t approve
I burn your soul,
I light that kind of fire.
My words slit innocence into half,
I demand that much desire.
I ruin your days,
Your nights are no longer yours.
Love tastes like brandy-poison mix,
It is not pure.
You reek of desperation,
Your blood boils often.
You write letters with blood,
Only to bury them in an empty coffin.
Neither your body,
Nor your mind makes sense.
I treat you as a lover,
But I call you a friend.
When you grab me by my waist,
I stare into your eyes.
I’m your salvation,
The woman who can listen to your silent cries.
I leave you half-thirsty,
I’m that unfinished prose,
You hate the idea of love now,
You look for yourself on empty roads.
Still you want a lifetime with me?
Because you like the taste of fire.
I may not be a perfect girl,
I’m the only one you admire.
It’s too late now,
I seep into bones fast.
Don’t regret falling in love with me,
Don’t ever call me your past.
Your friends hate me,
You fight for me too.
You declare us soulmates,
Knowing too well that’s not true.
Then why we started all this?
Why you fell for me?
Two messed-ups in a tragic story,
One hurricane, other the raging sea.
P. S. I’m still looking for an answer.
I light that kind of fire.
My words slit innocence into half,
I demand that much desire.
I ruin your days,
Your nights are no longer yours.
Love tastes like brandy-poison mix,
It is not pure.
You reek of desperation,
Your blood boils often.
You write letters with blood,
Only to bury them in an empty coffin.
Neither your body,
Nor your mind makes sense.
I treat you as a lover,
But I call you a friend.
When you grab me by my waist,
I stare into your eyes.
I’m your salvation,
The woman who can listen to your silent cries.
I leave you half-thirsty,
I’m that unfinished prose,
You hate the idea of love now,
You look for yourself on empty roads.
Still you want a lifetime with me?
Because you like the taste of fire.

I’m the only one you admire.
