The Fire I Had Poem by Daniel McCann

I keep seeing your face everywhere I turn
I wanna escape this failure, I know I need to learn
but its just this fire inside I can't help but feel it burn
I feel like theres no way out
I wanna scream I wanna shout
this white flag isnt me giving in, its me asking for help
I don't wanna fight no more, I'm trapped inside myself
I know I raised the bar I went so far I set fire to the roof
I wish you knew, I wish you understood
I was fighting to escape the truth
I was trying to win when I knew I was going to loose
its hard to believe I was feeling so weak when I looked so strong
it looked like I was winning when I was loosing all along.
I look ahead to see a frosty road on which I go on
and when I finally fall I will know that the fire is finally gone.
