My first:- A part of my most vital, suffers a sacred disease. When we share the air I act as if at a recital, she holds the remedy that I so badly need. Like walking on hot embers. My desire to turn back, evacuate this one-way track. This pain has begun to dismember. The end of this pain is nigh, in the distance I can see the light. I move faster and start the fly. But I am hindered as it is too bright. As the vision engulfs me. All that remains are a few scares ^*Bishop*^ |

Nice job on this one, your first. I like what you described, walking towards a light that is too bright after all. Well done, and welcome to Passions in Poetry. ~Allan Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. |

Welcome to Passions!!! I really liked how you ended the poem. The last line especially was quite impacting. Well done on the poem and I surely hope to see you posting and replying a lot!! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
