A fire inside.

Standing outside the fire, he watched.
Frenzied teachers did a head count.
It was a flame fueled by desire.
The desire to hurt, as he'd been.

He watched her, everything she did,
He soon fell in love with her.
But when she found out she hid.
For him to her was like oil to water.

She hid within the arms of her love.
He saw this betrayal and plotted revenge,
For this was not over.
So a fire he set, trapped her inside.

Walked out of the school,
Like everything was fine.
Laughing out loud, just like a fool.
Wishing he could watch her final moments too.
