Arson
Delicate skin set to ignite
New fire is lit to old flames
Flash backs, for inferno will fight
The crackles whisper their small names
Like smoke consuming the air
Burdens suffocate
Beacon sends oppressive glare
Escalating spate
Bonfire aglow
Arising bursts of combustion
Destroyed below
Long awaited for ignition
Irate! Fuming declare
Down! deteriorates the foundation
Thereon withers at dawn
Eager for disintegration
Burn! in the depths of Acheron

I have been writing passionately since I was about ten years old. When I was younger, I used to spend my days after school writing cheesy action/romance novels. Nowadays, I spend my time writing poetry, horror screenplays, and dystopian novels. I love using imagery, symbols, and hidden meanings! Random facts: I enjoy eating ice cream, cuddling, and watching city lights at night.
