A fire burns
inside my mind
Smoke clouds my vision
fills my eyes
As tears fall
the unbearable heat remains
Water cannot put out
this eternal flame


(i know its short and im still trying to develop it...any ideas?)

Oh MY! That is short but so well written! I don't know what exactly you're writing about, or what prompted you to write it, so I'm afraid I can't really give any solid ideas, but you have a terrific start! I'll be checkin in on this! Can't wait to see it finished, if you choose to go one with it!

Welcome to Passions!!  This was a great first post.  I think the length suits it well.  Short and sweet.  Anywho, this was great, again, welcome to PIP!!

yes, you should continue your thoughts here, what is the fire, or why do you burn? Try to expand it for us and welcome to Passions.

How about this before it...

Reality hits
like a piece of flint
sparks develop
then begin to roar


...just a suggestion

add this to the end

"Tears only fuel
The burining pain
And everything I know
Becomes ash and dust"

another suggestion

FireInYourEyes~
This is a wonderful first post,
and I like it just the way it is.
I'll be looking for lots more poetry from you.

I like it the way it is.

Sometimes I think people elaborate too much and then you forget why they were "burning" in the first place.

Welcome to Passions.

Life is where you look for it.

I like pyromania and neurosis so its just fine with me.

Love conquers all, so I must be in a losing battle.
