Burn

“It was the time we burned the night” she said

Liquid dreams 

Moments in time captured on paper

Like bad lyrics eched on the mind

We walked the dirty streets like giants that day

In a fairy tale unknown to most 

But this was no mushroom to make you small

It was reality

We lived in the frighting beauty of the light

Blinded by its fury 

And we loved

Let me go back to a time when I believed in something, a time I cared and there let me read this. Otherwise, let me just regret in peace.

Dam, this captivated me and took me to another place and time, a realm of poetic thought that creates reader memories, a pleasure to read!

"It was reality
We lived in the frighting beauty of the light
Blinded by its fury
And we loved"

Really powerful use of words. loved this line "walked the dirty streets like giants that day" - This really does make you think about the world in which we live in. Really powerful usage of words.

I have never been a poet myself but form what i have been reading - you poets seem to capture the imagination with such little words. I really don't know how you do it. A talent thats for sure.

Mark.

Oooo, I really like this one! Walking the streets like giants, blinded by our own light and burning through the night, loving every minute of this reality that no one else knows. Makes me think of when I was a teenager, just.... BURNING

Had me spell-bound with words. An enchanting read. Mixing the real with the surreal. I love it! Took me on a journey through the night. Captivated 'til the end!
