With the breath of my lips
I destroyed a friend
And in doing so
Destroyed myself
As though burning I writhed
As I heard her cries
And I longed to take back those words
That brought tears to her eyes
Though spoken, innocent,
They destroyed her now
And the fire, raging,
Consumed its creator.
Very nice! It's amazing how much damage a couple words can do... I can definately relate.
you went through this a lot didn't you? yeah, i think you idd.. but as the last one i criiqued... a lot of ppl do... not as many times though, but they still do :) love ya always Vicki
This has a really good message in it! I love it! Keep writing!
Interesting. You sound like a troubled guy. I hope this is just your way to vent and you're normally somewhat happy. Well, you know what they say about misery making great art.
Beautifully expressed. Whether the giver or the receiver, without experiencing the full range of human emotion we do not grow spiritually. Feel - we must and I felt your true emotion here. Extremely well written.
Wonderfully written...deeply felt. Keep up the good work!
Lucky for you we found a fire extinguisher love Ash
Much Love

i like the way that by the actions that you've done you've hurt another person, its painful but it creates a great poem. luv nikki
Full of deep sentiment which in time will turn to cold embers then wisp away with the first breeze.
