Sometimes daydreams are flammable often I stench of fires smoked to death the embers~flashbacks burning long after damage such tiny glow is enough to spark you beautiful dangerous flame only to drown your element with the bitter sob of fallen tear wrench of body and mind Not far from flame is water always . . |

Thanks you guys. You know what, this was the first poem i'd written in a long while that i actually liked. Glad you enjoyed reading, because I enjoyed writing. Windy lizzie, yep, fire when you smell it, run for the hills. or blow for the hills in your case. heh. Lol Janet Marie, like a moth to the flame, I must be a moth too! I always go for the pretty lights, that hurt! (though as i think i've said before, i am frightened to death of moths. harmless i know, but its the flapping!) ~I wanna live, I wanna give, I've been a miner for a heart of gold~ Neil Young |
