my favourite cataclysm.

it was like an explosion,
and when the dust settled, the gunpowder never cleared,

i will burn while you keep the detonator near,
in case you need a pretty fire to keep you warm.

i think i like exploding more than i like the emptiness without the flames,
you will burn my palms, but at least they are not empty and plain,
so i will beg you please, pull the pin again and again,
and i will fall in love with the flames licking my skin.

i'm sorry i got too close. or was i not close enough?
