Burning on the Inside

Folder: 
April 2007

I am burning on the inside

The flames have only grown

My soul, it has seem to have died

In the wind the ashes have blown



If you were to look in my eyes you would see the dying of a fire

Once it sparked and grew so high

Now I am standing all alone and broken atop the pyre

Now that the fire has chose to die



In the ashes, soft as the summer sand...

I write, "I loved you'... as the heat burns my hand

Tears fill my eyes as I try to forget

All the special times I remember since we met



The wind picks up and the waves crash hard

I stand up, dust myself off and pick back up my guard

I notice the waves of the ocean come and wash away my love for you....

Just like the words that I had written....and it was then that I knew we were through...



I turned to walk away but in the back of my mind,

I could still hear the sweet words you would say

Are your memories going to forever tease and taunt

At night are you going to be a ghost and haunt



I start to runaway but I am followed by your laughter

Now I know there is not going to be a happy ever after

Now the tears pour from my eyes

As I find out all of your lies



Burning inside

The flames of our past only grow

My soul has seems to have died

In the wind the ashes of our love continue to blow

There is a poem on here, that i wrote called "Goodbye, Elliot (L'ame immortelle/"5 Jahre")" It describes what had happened during our friendship, which expanded from the computer to the phone, and then it crashed and left me heartbroken, 'cause he was there for so much, and I gave him one piece of vital information, and he sends me back not one of the niceest emails one receieves. This is the first poem in which I used his name. I can only hope it says something. I just want to see what you think of it...?

This work, yours, is nice..filled with emotion
