What It Feels Like

Alone
in my thoughts
arguing
with the fire's
temptation
as curiosity
slowly numbs
my ability
to discern

Flames
rising
like emotions
should I
shouldn't I
I know
I shouldn't
because I'll burn

But
the want
the desire
for its escape
has grasped
my soul
like an addictive yearn

So I close
my eyes
the warmth
is so inviting
that I stop doubting
the reality
that it could be more
than just this
one turn

I had to
the rage
persuaded my soul
like the devil's invitation
to hell
and now
I know
there is no return

And I pray
I pray
to find a way
to forgive
myself
for having to live
this lesson
I've learned

Nice poem .

Beautiful poem

You got it again. Especially with these times we are currently in. Many alone and isolated like never before
