Campfires

You know I like 

to reminisce 

I’m eighteen years 

and getting pissed 

 

I light a cigarette 

and miss

the flame’s to close

to eyelashes

 

I know comfort 

in a memory 

and future’s 

in the dark

 

Present’s 

only consistency

is someone’s 

broken heart

 

There’s a lot 

we best forget

late night calls

and loneliness

 

and I know

you questioned this,

you’re beautiful

I must insist

 

mostly melancholy

I remained 

and you glowed

like campfires 

in the rain

[Coyote Poetry]

The poem is very good. You can tell a good story. I like the description and the poem. So many statements stood out in the poem. you're beautiful. I must insist. A excellent poem.
