The Fire Inside

Swirling

Waves

The blackness fades

As I draw near

Closer to you

And you retreat farther away

Tunnels never end

Your hurt

Without wounds

Nothing's been done to you

That you didn't start

I've been hurt

By you alone

But don't run

I need this now

Not sure if I want

Revenge or consolation

Peace or decimation

When you hit the corner

And find only a wall

What will you do?

As I chase you

Grab your wrist

What happens now

Is down to you

I have no control

Over you

But I react anyways

Do I hurt you?

Does it feel good?

Is it scaring you

Or giving you relief?

I might not be

Secure

But I'm still here

You've faded

I can still feel you

Like a spark

Burning away at my

Insides

Consuming my logic

Giving voice to animal passions

The blackness grows 

As you run away

But I'm still right behind

Watching as these feelings

Wave and

Swirl

"I've been hurt
By you alone
But don't run
I need this now
Not sure if I want
Revenge or consolation
Peace or decimation"

This part called to me while I was reading this poem. It's a part of the poem the stuck out to me above all the rest. Probably because I can relate somehow to to these lines.

"Your hurt

That you didn't start"
Fav. part.

The monologue is nicely done my friend. The questioning tone really compliments the persona's sentiments, my friend. So well done!

A amazing poem. I like the way you described each set of lines. Holding on and questioning at the same time. Life can be trickery. We never know if we are right or wrong sometime. I believe be kind and try not to speak negative. Then maybe if we are lucky. We can find the truth one day. A outstanding poem. No weaknesses in this poem.
