You stifled my love to death

I have loved you with all my heart
and my soul burst into flames every time it heard your name.
My heart used to dance at the sight of your smile,
Now it rains through my eyes...
And under my tears,
The last flame dies.
My mind blamed me for my heart's innocence,
My heart cursed me for my mind's intolerance,
"Nonsense!"
I screamed in despair,
Hoping it could be repaired.
The scars you caused,
The damage remains.
You stifled my love to death with your unthinking mind.
Your ignorance; that's your curse.
