Close To The Flame

by Beautiful Chaos   Apr 26, 2007


I hurt too feel,
And feel too scream,
Open my mind,
To the darkness of dream.

Flames start to flicker,
And kiss at my skin,
Igniting a fire,
That burns me within.

I'm lost to the madness,
Embracing the flow,
The pleasure you feed me,
Is all that I know.

Devour me softly,
Suffer with want,
For all that I am,
Is all that you taunt.

My burning desire,
Fast beating heart,
My long starving soul,
Indeed every part.

I lustfully slumber,
Without any shame,
Far from the real world,
Close to the flame.

    Oooh, I saw this in the contest forum and just had to comment on it.

    I love the quick flow it adds an element of intensity that sets off the entire piece.
    It's usually easy for me to pick my favorite lines in a poem, but there are so many to chose from.
    I'll just say the ending is flawless.
    Well done~Holly

    Starting off reading that, I really didn't think I'd like it..but as I read on..I did. =)

    "I hurt too feel,
    And feel too scream,
    Open my mind,
    To the darkness of dream."

    ^^ That stanza, I had to read the first few lines a few times to get what was trying to be said, but they ended up being my favorite in the poem. =)
