Fuel the fire

by in.need.of.a.lucky.charm   Feb 15, 2007


The time ticks by, the more I need it..
The higher the ledge, the longer I leave it..
The longer I leave it, the further the fall..
The more I believe it, the thicker the wall..
The thicker the wall, the distance multiplies..
The secrets inside, the covered up lies..
The covered up lies, filter through the cracks..
The stabs of knifes, on innocent backs..
The innocent backs, the harder the burn..
The scars they bear, of the lessons never learned..
The lessons unlearned, the haunting desire..
The pain within, only fuels the fire.

    Very interesting. I like the description of it all. I also noticed you repeated the lines you just said.. For emphasis maybe... You drew an image in my head. I like your style. The flow was great and the rhymes were fine... all execpt that first 2 lines .. same word but the flow made it okay. putting ... at the end of each line made the poem seem to go slow as if dragging on... Get it? Maybe that was the style you were going for I don't know... Anyways overall it was a great poem. I like this part the best:

    The longer I leave it, the further the fall..
    The more I believe it, the thicker the wall..
