Burning

by Maple Tree   Jul 22, 2012


Hypocritical eyes
glow in a misty gorge,
secrets are consummated,
judgement marked,
I stand bound
to a stick of flame,
light me up,
set me free,
never will I
give in
to your
beliefs-

    I really enjoy reading your poems Andrea, it feels as though there is nothing you cannot do!

    You've got a few typos though, as far as I think: "consumated" should be "consummated" and "belifs" should be "beliefs".

    Eyes are always intriguing if they are presented in a good way, which you definately did. You keep the suspense throughout this whole piece, which I could imagine to be tough to do, usually the beginning or the end is really captivating, but your whole poem is.
    I also like the eerie atmosphere you create with so few words.

    Well done. :)
