Burning Out

Burning Out

A Poem by mermaidgirl
"

This poem compares fire to life. Many things in life burn bright, yet are gone in an instant.

"
Burning fast and high but not for long,
Flickering away without a final song
Burns so bright, but it's gone so fast
Disappearing in a second, only embers last
The embers linger, a reminder of what was
But in the end they're gone, no matter what one does
