Burn this Girl

by Jamie   Oct 8, 2005


Sifting through the reasons
I'm out of breath, this time
Im burning without halo
Suffocating as the flames begin to climb

Your misguided accusations
And misanthropic ways of life
Destenitize your conscience
And create authentic strife

The fire dances around me
Lavishing with searing pain
Lash out in violent torment
F.u.c.k sufferance, I will complain

Vulgar, this is so uncivil
It starts to tear me down
If you could just stop playing god
And take a look around

Youve found a synthetic solution
To a complication you fabricated
But the dead cant stand to play
This make-believe game that youve created

My soul is swallowed by the fury
My body consumed by the fire
Asphyxiating my essence
Each minute the flame burns higher

Blinded by the circumstances
Youve made a lethal mistake
And Im just one of many
Witches burned at your stake

***so this is just pain being compared to the Salem witch trials...its not just about the witch trials its more about someone hurting someone just because they can, without reason or anything...something along those lines***

    It is nice but you used to many rarly uncommonly used words be cause of this the flow is interupted (even for me and i am a human dictionary) it is hard to relate to a poem when you must look up 90% of the words (or in my case 20%) lol ok well it's still a 4/5
