My Burning Heart

The passion that i've waited for
All my life, I finally found
But it's fear that i feel the strongest
Because i'm frightened by the madness
That it brings out in me
This hunger that i can barely control
It's like a film upon my skin
i can feel it every waking moment
This part of me long buried
Ablaze now that it's been set free
Like flames fed by oxygen
My need is exhausting me
Leaving me spent and trembling
i want to lose myself in You
Every bit as much as i want
To run from You
i'm sick from withdrawal without You around
A sickness i never thought i'd feel
Love is a bully beating the hell out of me
And i let it because i can't stop
Injecting myself with You
Soon there will be nothing left of who i was
And the silent screams inside my mind
Will be all i can hear and the thunderous
Beating of  my heart... my burning heart...
