Soul Of Flames Poem by Bethany Maxwell

Soul Of Flames

Rating: 4.1


I sit and watch as the flames lick at the bricks
The red, and orange tipped beauty
The tongues of fury lick
As it burns through the wood and metal preforming its duty

The red hipmotizing, the orange bright
I watch the light fill the black
What a wonderful sight
Bringing the memories back

The house falls to pieces as I sit and stare
My tears falling to the ground
My eyes filled whith the flames glare
My tears fall to the ground without a sound

I sit and watch as the flames lick at the bricks
The red, and orange tipped with beauty
The flames swirl and mix
As I sit in silence intranced with love and lust

The flames so wonderful so bright
The night dark as coal
My eyes filled with stars, with light
The flames licking at my soul

Poem reminds of the loneliness one can experience when single. And there is no one else to turn too but the self. Expressed beautifully. Congratulation! ! !
