i set fire

to my moxie

to eat away the reverie

before i am eaten.

ive gone this path before,

and the roads

are truly

perilous.

sparks beget ash

ash begets sound

because if i face

the deepest dilemmas of my dreams

unaccompanied,

the blackest,

most merciless monsters of my

superego,

i find myself alone

with a taste for flames

and a penchant for daydreams.

but

words arent enough to

fix

when the limerence

needs fire

to mend
