I Dream of Fire

Every night i dream of fire and death. I stand over you as I watch you bleed I watch as The pain fills your eyes and You reach out to touch me but I kick your hand away like a dirty rag. Your hand falls sadly and the flames swallow you whole I stand and watch as tears begin To form but not full of sadness but full of rage. This is what you get I think to my self You reap what you sow. I can still see your face as the flames eat you alive The heat surrounds me and death comes soon after. The flames dance all night until the sun breaks its light. But I stand in front of the raging fire My heart filled with no emotion You were suppose to be special I said to my self But I let you go so easily. I wipe my tears away But my rage builds till my chest starts to hurt. I look around at what was once my Life and then I say its time to take my leave I look once more as your body burns to ash Then I turn from the flames and start to slowly walk away. Then I start to disappear with every step I take Then I realize when that person died my soul left with them.

Very, very powerful write. I have no question regarding content but...why capitalize "I" sometimes and not other times? Why not use some periods? Just some thoughts....Light & Love
