Blazing


Don't ask me "What's wrong?" if you've never shared what's wrong with you.

I don't want to touch that flame in front of someone who has only smelled the smoke from my eardrums.  

You are not invited to observe me experiment
(and explore the fire before me)...

You are not allowed to witness me dare myself to get closer and closer to that kind of heat.

Don't expect me to tell you what's troubling me because you consider our acquaintance "friendship".

I've seen all of my friends' burns...
new and old.
