I'll burn down the bridges
While I still control the flame
I'll scream it's entirety
Before I lose your name
I don't like turning pages
I prefer to rip them out
Throwing away Life's Book
I can live just fine without
So when you break
And you fall
Face first on the floor
I'll not be here anymore
When you crack
And Shatter
I'll not be around
To piece you back together
The world revolved around you
Now it revolves around me
The chains that held me captive
I've chewed through, now I'm free
The rock once on your hand
Now lyes in the dust
Now the last decision
To implode or combust

Nice work. Great rhyme scheme, nice construction and flow. Interesting use of vocabulary an wordplay mechanics. You left ample room for personal perspectives and interpretations for the reader. Thanks for the great read.
