Burned

by John Perez

Burn

A fury of fire that never died

Burn

A hatred that I refused to hide

Burn

My spirit that rose like a phoenix

 

Burns

The reminder of where I've been

Burns

Forever engraved upon my skin

Burns

A brand I refused to let break me

I am an unpublished poet and have been writing for the past two years. I have many poems but am hesitant to share online but gladly share in person. I still write because of all those that have enjoyed reading my writing.

<p>I think we all have something that burns inside of us. It either makes up stronger and more determined or it completely destroys us consuming everything and only leaving a hollow shell.</p>
