the arsonist

A Poem by A.marie.speaks
"

written about all the fires I've started in my life..

"

Just Walk Away

its burnt

its ash

nothing you do will make it come back


Just Run Away

its over

its done

the longer you stay the harder it becomes


Just Look Away

it will disappear

its fear

that's got your feet glued here


Just take a deep breath

hold it in

and when you begin

to let it out

SHOUT ITS OVER

don't doubt yourself

don't mull it over

leave those ashes there to smolder

your life is not over

it has just begun

now run from here

before fear blocks you

locks you in this place

in a past you can never replace

and that face you can never erase

stuck in some trace of space

that never existed

you don't wanna remain in this

twisted skeleton

where no one else can ever come in

don't even begin

to contemplate

that fate

ESCAPE

now

the debate

its over

leave those ashes there to smolder

its burnt

its ash

nothing you do will make it come back

Just Run Away and Never Look Back

Sometime the hardest person to make listen. Is ourselves. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.
