Last night the fires burned
the smoke singed my face
when you told me the news
you had to leave....
I thought it was only a nightmare
that i would wake up soon
but i hurt myself and i felt pain
i would have to wait....
I choked on the words
i was consumed by emotions
not knowing what to feel
how did this happen...
I heard the devil laugh
at my misfortune
he had this planned all along
i still love you...
i always said that i would go to hell
so i guess this is hell on earth
because i died when i heard his voice last night
someone save me from this nightmare......
i cant escape this hell......

well done...the hellish feelings of when the heart is
broken and the pain of it mocks...achingly.
Three days grace is a great song!
What do we do now??????????????? allow the hell to
consume all remnants of your heart....or allow time
to heal...and restore strength anew.
Do you feel the fires of hell burning in your heart
to teach you wise lessons in the giving of your
love?
What is the domain of hell...is it how we challenge it?
ears/Seattle
