I burn through you, The flames in me, Red and powerful, All that I see. Anger, rage, hatred, They flow so easily, Ah my enemies, One day you’ll be free Free of my tortured mind, A mind scarred and burnt, By your lies and bitterness, If only you had learnt. My eyes burn through you, My vision swarms with pain, I scream a surge of insanity, Rage falls, a lava rain. I’ll burn through it all, The flame will live on, While the memory dies, The pain is never gone. I am burnt and scarred, I am hate and rage, The diary seethes and bleeds, How I yearn to burn the page. My eyes glaze over, The red descends, My enemies laugh, But my mind transcends. Fight fire with fire, It worked in war, My enemies quiver in fear, This is what life is for. You hate me, I hate you, The mutual feeling, Red mist in my eyes, My mind reeling. The hatred burns deep, The fire glows forever, You are my life enemies, No friendship, never! |

You must've doused the fire somewhat in order to write such a very well written (excellent) and emotionally charged poem! Kudos to you! Grover. |
