Forever dead

Forever dead

A Poem by Mina Salva
"

I've never wrote a poem, but once I tried, I ended up talking about her. "Her" is that girl who used to be my best friend, but then, everything changed.

"

Fire can burn, fire can heal
Fire can destroy, fire can fix
It can create and eliminate
It's capable to kill, it's capable to save
Fire is my enemy, but my friend
People are burying me alive, as I'm slowly catching breaths
My heart pounds, and my knees rush
No one can see that, but only fire
I smile, I laugh, I cry, I scream
I get down on the floor, I wouldn't wake up again if I didn't catch the courage
The courage I've built in me at the hardest times
It won't fade, It's mine
It will help me against the bloody line, the line we go through, the line we all have in our lives
It's an igniting line, you get burned by
It consequences depression, suicide, or just a grief for life
The courage I have, will only bring me relief
But what about the fire? Will it stop crying our hearts? Drying our souls?
Fire is dire, It gains out of me ire
That's its only aim, to create a flame
Who is fire? Fire is you, dear foe
You were a friend, but now I see the end
You spent living in my lightweight heart, and I lent you my trust
But as a thanks, you sent me hatred, jealousy, and ignorance.
Is this the value of our friendship? I never thought it would ever fly far away. Why?
Silence engulfing us, smiles hiding it
Tears at night, screams and dreams
Is my heart a stone, you thought it never wounds?
Is my soul as white as snow, you thought you can throw?
Is my heart as strong you see, or as weak you ignore?
Will I forgive you? Do you deserve me?
I never visualized the end, I never imagined our memories will someday vanish.
I never pictured our friendship dead.
I never pictured you, dead to me forever in my eyes.

This is really powerful. I really enjoyed reading it but the only mistake I caught is "I get down on the floor, I wouldn't wake up again if I didn't caught the courage" I think you meant catch the courage? But it's just a minor thing and it doesn't take away what a great piece this is. I look forward to reading more, well done.
