Flames

Fire.

Set fire to my heart.

Let's watch it burn.

Set my heart to flames.

Take a match.

Take it, 

Take it.

Hold it to my organ.

Let's burn all the memories.

Burn all the memories.

There, now.

Everything that ever caused me pain.

Burn.

Let it consume.

Let's watch it go away.

Set my heart to flames.

Fireplace, stove.

Anything goes.

Anything,

Anything.

Toss the feeble thing in.

Let's burn all the memories.

Burn all the memories.

There, now.

Everything that ever caused me pain.

Flames.

Let them grow.

Let's watch the colors sway.

Set it into orange, red, and gray.

Burning, pain.

Let's wash it away.

Wash it away.

Wash it away.

In flames.

Let's burn all the memories.

Burn all the memories.

There, now.

Everything that ever caused me pain.

Flames.

Let them grow.

Let's watch the colors sway.

Set it into orange, red, and gray.

Burning, pain.

Let's wash it away.

Wash it away.

Wash it away.

In flames.

I believe this is the culimnation of all your darkest impulses, all set to art. I won't give an opinion. I'll just leave it at that.

I had to come take a peak after you commented on my poem.
I love your use of repetition. It just seems to have a magical quality.
It provides for good emphasis. The one thing I took from this, and I have to agree with what Hailey said, was that "it makes evident the desperation that one might feel to just burn away any pain..." (Hailey). Very good, and I think I'll want to see more of your work.

emotion is evident throughout the entire poem and it flows well, it makes evident the desperation that one might feel to just burn away any pain that might feel, good job as usual Story :)

sigh. this made me realize that i need to read more of your writing.
but i liked this a lot. It shows how someone would do anything to make to pain go away. (correct me if im wrong, not everyone's views in poetry are the same) it was great, bunny XD
