Fire
By Japanese Dreamer

Disclaimer: Inuyasha is not mine.


My pain seems to grow
With each passing day
My happiness is withering
And shattering even more

I can't seem to do anything
Without thinking of you
And because of my obsession,
My pain slowly grows

Knowing I can never have you again
Tears me up inside
But still yet I continue
Mending the torn pieces

I silently wonder
If you know your hurting me
But I doubt that
With bitter hatred and vengeance

My pain rids me
Of any happiness I have left
And instead fills me
With hatred that combines with my own

My regrets fuel the fire
And inside me it burns my resolve
I know my love still lives in you
But in me, it's burning in the fire

Others think I have no compassion left in me
But inside, it's the only thing I'm hanging on to
Others think I should move on
But I think I should stay

My happiness is fleeting
My compassion broken in two
My love dwindling down
But the fire keeps on burning

That in itself, is what keeping me here
Is what keeping me from moving on
The hatred is burning
The branch of love I'm holding on to
