A fire.

by Holly   Dec 22, 2009


A fire is arising in my heart and
It'll burn every feeling I've had
The aroma of death will make me happy
and no longer will I be sad

The flames will travel within me.
Killing everything in it's path
Soon you'll see the scars
and then you'll feel my wrath!

My innocence is gone.
Stolen by so much hate.
Who knew that flamable gasoline
could cause so much fate.

All feeling is gone and black
but flames still rest on my fingertips
My nails will soon be melted
just like the skin on my lips.

Look at me before the light dies down
I hope you'll get literal heat flashes
Soon enough the pain will leave and
just like me, you'll be nothing but ashes.

    This was a powerful and striking piece, especially with that last line, it left me haunted. The emotion in this piece was alive and real and the descriptions you gave out really helped me understand this poem. A sad and mournful piece, your words still linger on my mind.

    I would have liked to read more and more of this, it was that good!

    My only suggestion would be to fix the punctuation. In some places it wasn't there and then you used periods where there should have been comma's and etc.

    Keep writing my friend, you have talent!

    God bless you and Merry Christmas!
