Like cancer in the heart
your words consume life
and now all withers
before it inhales breath.

Swiftly striking ash
so fires anew,
just consuming depth
until all light fades

Lost in the darkness
the flame gives no light
collects all my fears
like morning dew drops

So overwelmed
Drownding in words

It's "drowning;" I think you should correct that... spelling errors are understandable but they can be distracting when trying to enjoy a poem.

But, I do think you've got something here.  I liked the progressive theme of death and rotting, especially how you capped it with an image of the dark consuming the image---nicely done.

Huh?

I am confused.
I was talking about manipulation and lies. I used that theme to explain my repulsion and distaste. I am still baffled that I spelled drowning wrong.

Juju, I see now why you liked River of Heart -- climb.  This was a tear jerker but so well written; I liked the anology of cancer.   and
