Afterlife On Fire

The danger in starting a fire is that sometimes you can't stop it. It'll spin out of control and burn everyone you love. I started a fire just to see if I could control it, and now no one is left. I am alone in an ashen world cursed to live eternally for my sins. There is nothing for me here but carbon air and molten temperatures, it isn't too bad compared to what I deserve. What I deserve is to be the last of two, with one person always blissfully ignorant to my existence. I should love that person, and it should dig into every fiber of my being when she doesn't notice me. I should feel that pain every hour of every day, everyone is gone because I played with that fire.
Local news states that a teenager burnt down his own home killing himself and no one else. It is fortunate that the family was out, but the whole neighborhood supports them in their loss. It is inconclusive if this was a case of arson, or suicide.
