At that moment in time, the point of no return <br />You’re standing inside the fire watching yourself burn <br />You don't feel the pain as you stand comfortably numb <br />Watching your life unfold, watching it come undone <br />You’re caught in the fire as you break down and cry <br />Watching your life fade as you wave it goodbye <br />You touch the fire but it freezes you, you want the feeling back <br />Watching the smoke fill your eyes as it turns to a void of black <br />You'll do anything, whatever it takes not to fade away <br />Anything instead of watching your life burn everyday <br />You'll do anything to stop your heart from turning to dust <br />Anything to stop your tears creating a life turned to rust <br />You need to find that once bright encompassing spark <br />The reason that will pull you into the light and out of the dark <br />Words of wisdom can save you, if only you can be told <br />You need to hide from the flames and run from the cold <br />You no longer want to wave your life a tearful goodbye <br />You no longer wish to stand inside the fire and cry <br />At that moment in time, the point of no return <br />You no longer wish to watch yourself burn<br /><br />nicola burkett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/10-caught-in-the-fire/
