Burn Slow
Do you know the feeling?
Intensifying pain that
trickles in every
heart beat
A roaring flame, crackling
Startling; at first,but;yet, still
pleasant.
Shivers, the cold warmth
a reverberating light
echoing; lost in
its embers
Ashes of remembrance
fingertips; scorched like old memories lost in amnesia
The lack of a child's laughter
the crevice of fury resonating in every shrill voice
as the flames consume
dangerous consequences brought upon
by dangerous actions
An intensity of the sun; melting
in every memory
Misguided oxygen, the candle wick
has
burned down to
ashes
