Burning Chance

Burning Chance

A Poem by Brandon Mathis

I keep calling but you don’t answer

I can’t control myself

Your love has spread into me like cancer

Life has given me one last chance

 

 I can’t get enough of you

Choosing a path for me to go through

It’s like I’m going through loops

Going in circles

I’m spinning in place with the world

 

I was wasting away before you came

Drowning myself in regret and shame

This time I will do things right

Since you have brought the light back to my life

I don’t feel the same

Now that the world is not piercing me like knives

 

It’s like I’m in loves trap

My skin begins to turn black

As this cancer begins to attack

My life feels like it’s burning, turning to ash

I don’t want to make you sad

But I don’t think I love you back

 

This was my last chance

That I have set on fire

My own words are piecing me like knives

The bleeding tears that I cry

My burning skin falls off

As I’m now forever lost

So I say good-bye

As my life fades and I’m gone
