The flame burns within me.
It wraps me in warmth, keeps me safe.
I live from this.
I am fire
The fire is my fuel.
My deep burning passion for those I love.
I love as deep as the fire surrounding my heart.
But it also fuels my anger.
I shout. I yell. I lose my precious control.
But I hold my head as high as the flames, and rise.
I am fire.
Those who do not understand are confused.
For it is not I who makes the fire, but the fire created me.
I am myself from my flames.
My passion burns deep,
For I cannot be contained.
I am fire.
I created myself, and then rose above it.
Above everyone else.
This is who I am now, proud and strong.
I am fire.
I wish I could take it all back.
Every fight we've ever had.
Every swear we've uttered.
I miss you.
I will never forget.
The times I'd sleep with you when I was scared
The hugs you offered when mom and dad were fighting.
When you eft for college.
When you left for Europe, and when you came back.
Now where are we?
We are so close, but I don't see you.
It feels as though I am blind.
In a dark room, I search for you.
For your hand, your guidance.
I need you.
Now, things are getting worse.
They are better within my screen...
Now I know why you loved the computer so much.
Please forgive me.
I wish I had gotten closer to you,
When you were still here.
Starbucks and long jeans, those days are still here.
I envy you.
You were able to get out.
Home is worse now...
I am beginning you were the one that kept the peace.
We are falling apart.
Where did you go?
I'm done.
You can't control me anymore.
I thought I was dieing before I met you.
Now I see the truth. You didn't save me, that was just the icing covering a cold, sad truth.
(Drops to knees)
What do you want from me?
I thought I was your angel. I have given you everything. I gave you everything.
You told me I was perfect.
Then why did you keep trying to fix me?
(Holds wrists out)
These are the cuffs you chained me with.
I was your angel of a prisoner.
But now I have the key.
I control myself.
(Stands up)
Go find another angel.
This one's fallen to her own grace.

i would love to know who it was that had such an angel...only to lose her.
you are strong, so only you control you.

actually, this is not about anyone...
I was toying with monologues for an audition is all
It's okay. You don't have to yell anymore.
She gets it.
You don't have to hit her anymore.
She flinches automatically.
You don't have to crticize her anymore.
She's heard it all before.
You don't have to hurt her anymore.
She's already broken.
Is this what you people wanted?
To destroy her?
Or did that just happen because you exsisted in her life? She loved you, you know.
She looked up to you.
She's not a fucking superhuman, she's fragile.
You can't do that to her.
Why are you so harsh? She used to like your heart...
She was dead wrong, but thank fucking God she learned quickly.
She is a powerful person.
She is strong.
But you don't need to test that.
Why does everyone think it is their job to do so? And in the most brutal of ways, nonetheless.
Stop it.
You already scared her.
what more do you want from this poor thing?
How about an arm?
A leg? Or a bone?
Go ahead and rip it off.
Just like you did to her heart.
She is smart.
But she can't take it all at once. I am amazed anyone has even made it this far.
Give her a break.
She is delicate.
