~*~Whispers From the Flame~*~Part 8~
~*~Matt sat in his room ,well the room he had claimed to be his when Jeff had bought the house,as sat on the bed the same images kept running through his mind,Flame...his one and only love,memories of the times they had together wouldnt leave him be,they kept fogging his mind,asking for release but he couldnt let go,he would never let go of the memories because if he did,he would be letting go of her,and he would never in a million years do that,because for as long as he lived,she would be the only one he ever truly loved with all his heart,noone could replace her~

~he felt tears burn his eyes as they slowly slid down his cheeks,god he missed her so much he would do anything to have her back,to hold her at night,feel her soft finger tips slide across his cheek.her beautiful hair brush over his body when they kissed,just to feel her soft lips again upon his,he had tried to let go so many times,he knew he had to get on with his life,but the more he tried the harder it became,every corner he turned there was something there to remind him of her,how can you let go of someone who refuses to be let go? It was like she was still there with him at times,watching over him,but if she was why didnt he see her,didnt she love him,didnt she miss him as much as he missed her~

~Matt knew she loved him but at this point so many thoughts creeped into his mind,he couldnt distinguish one from the other at times,as he thought all of this,he wiped his eyes with the back of his hands,staring at a picture of the two of them on his night stand,as he stared he heard a clicking sound,looking around the room he saw noone so he looked back at the picture then heard it again,his eyes caught site of the cd player,he watched in confusion,listening as his cd changer changed cd's.he wondered how it was doing that when he was on the bed and noone else was there with him,his thoughts were cut short when the soft ballad broke the silence that surounded him~


I'm alone, yeah, I don't know if I can face the night
I'm in tears, and the cryin' that I do is for you
I want your love, let's break the walls between us
Don't make it tough, I'll put away my pride
Enough's enough, I've suffered and I've seen the light

~Matt sat frozen on the bed,hearing the song,he stared at the stereo as more tears filled his eyes~

Baby,


You're my angel, come and save me tonight
You're my angel, come and make it all right
You're my angel, come and save me tonight


Don't know what I'm gonna do about this feelin' inside
Yes, it's true, loneliness took me for a ride
Without your love, I'm nothing but a beggar
Without your love, a dog without a bone
What can I do, I'm sleepin' in this bed alone

~Matt moved his hand,swiping at the tears on his cheeks as new ones began to fall.listening to the words to the song,thinking back the year before when him and Flame had a arguement over, what,now he didnt remember,but it had been enough for her to walk away from him,he had called her for days,only to get her answering machine,then finally one day while getting her answering machine he had began singing that song,his voice was filled with emotion as he had sung it,because he meant every word,thinking about that time,how much he had missed her only for a few short days,now after six weeks it felt like a life time~


You're my angel, come and save me tonight
You're my angel, come and make it all right
You're my angel, come and save me tonight

You're the reason I live
You're the reason I die
You're the reason I give
When I break down and cry
Don't need no reason why
Baby, baby, baby

You're my angel, come and save me tonight
You're my angel, come and make it all right
You're my angel, come and save me tonight

~*~he stared at the stereo as the last chords of the song played,his eyes red and puffy from the tears,he glanced around then back at the stereo,wondering why it had played that song,of all songs why that one,why one that would bring so much emotion inside of him,make him that much sadder,he didnt know,or seem to care,all he knew was he would do anything to have Flame back with him,to just hold her in his arms,one night so she would know how much she really meant to him~
