Dying Flame

Dying Flame

A Poem by Moonflower

 

 

 

Maybe...I will die

 

And then these words will echo

 

Forever in your minds

 

I'm a shadow on the wall

 

A flickering flame

 

One day I will go out,

 

Never to return again

Short but good. Sad but i liked it

Again, a depressing write...
Hurm, but this one quite sad and softer than before...

Even though it's short, but it was enough to tell the message...
I liked it..

It's very sad, but I can feel it. We all want to be remembered.

Simple, but powerful.
Love the subtle rhyme scheme... it seemed a little bit abrupt to me, but perhaps that was intentional.
And did you mean *dying* in the title?

Nice write.

Yes, but the reality that we took flesh gives exhilaration of joy!
The best thing in life!

.
your words are powerful and you convey much in a short piece, which in my opinion is harder than a long drawn out poem..well done

Short, but the message is clear very nice job! Your writing is improving extremely fast!

A very good poem. Direct and to the point. I wonder what pain I would cause if I disappears and never came back? I don't know. I believe better to torture the person and be hanging near. A excellent poem.
