Love and Savior

By Anathema •
i am losing.
you are corruption.
i am failure.
you are rejection.
lust and desire,
that brings us to our needs.
you are the fire.
i am insufficiency.
here, on our knees,
we will burn eventually.
cooking and smoking,
flesh on a leash.
led by the flame,
your release.
sulfur, or your poisoning?
i'd burn you, too,
but it would never help.
i'll never be able to save myself.
