burn

Relationships are sometimes like an old apartment: the walls seem to be standing, but everything is held together with tape and habit. No matter how hard you try to patch things up, one day it will flare up so badly that it's easier to burn it down than to repair it. That's exactly how it feels when you don't have the strength to argue anymore, and saying goodbye is louder than any words.

Instead of tenderness, there are sparks; instead of hugs, there is smoke, but there is also a strange sense of relief. Because sometimes a fire is not about destruction, but about freedom: letting the ashes scatter and coming out new, cleaner, lighter. Music only adds fuel to this fire, making it burn beautifully and completely.
