My Words

I just wrote the words
Put them in their place
Gave it some thought
I wrote these words
With insecurity
But with commitment
Of being someone
Of myself
I wrote these words
But these words written
Without thought only feelings
Hold the baked cast iron in your hands
Burn your skin
For my heart is cooked
I wrote these words
To express my soul
The sadness released
The words of hope
Better I feel
For the blister is in your hand
Only in my thoughts
I wrote your pain
Only in your words
Do you make me lie
Only in my words
I can reach the sky

You've got the seeds of something here. I wouldn't keep these lines intact but I would definitely start thinking of blistering before being burned.

yes brad as given you a gem.  Use those lines  for a metaphor not telling us that you wrote the lines.

Great
