I just need a moment
To stop and heal
And get in touch with my dying flame.
I have old wounds that are hidden inside
Unhealed wounds waxed with pride
I would strip to the wind and be vulnerable
But it won't care but hide,
It’s unavailable.
My oxygen has put me on an emotional lockdown.
And so I burning out
Wholly and completely.
Wholly and completely.
I have to be alone
On my own.
For a moment
Though burning out
I want to be born again.
