House of Fire
(poems go here) I live in an agonizing fire;
One moment, searing fire, the next a cool breeze on my face.
Whatever happens within this house that burns, but never crumbles, I will survive it;
This is not to say that I am strong; In fact, I am weak.
It is simply the painful reality I cannot escape.
They say the fire went out, but I never notice.
The flames flicker in my eyes, never ceasing, but growing larger all the time.
I am not dead, but I am not among the living;
My soul is merely stuck in-between the two worlds.
How will I ever get out?
