Burn

by Robert   Sep 1, 2004


Burn for the deeds you have done,
Burn longer for you are the last one.
Burn for what passion raged inside you,
Burn until you know our words are true.
Burn our image of God and laws we live by,
Burn until your questions quit asking why.
Burn for we will not shed a drop of blood,
Burn until our kind comes as a locust flood.
Burn because we want all your gold,
Burn because this story was foretold.
Burn for your family, and all you hold dear,
Burn for that is the only reason you can hide the fear.
Burn these words in you into all your kinds heart,
Burn in our hell as we tear your people apart.
Burn for we will not rest until we are done,
Your kind will burn until our dreams are yours and we are one.

    That was diffrent, the use of the word burn, was repeative, but it worked for the flow is excellent. You did another excellent job. Well written, and the word choice was amazing5/5

    I finally found the poem! U have so many! I think I need to show more true emotion is my poems! This showed deep emotion which always makes for a better poem! I was abused both emotionally and physically! It's hard to write it all out into a poem because there is so much to the story! I was with this guy for 9 years and he is my sons father! I have moved on and I have never been happier! So I try to write more happy poems! Some of my poems that I first posted were written along time ago. I just started trying to really write recently so as u can see I need some help! Thanx for taking the time to read them! I appreciate it! I am a pro at business letters and dictations but poetry needs improvement! I feel like I write like a small child at times! Well enough of me going on about my writing! Take Care! Brooke
