Soul On Fire

Soul on fire 

Heavy breathing , bleeding heart anguished 
and  distressed with all sort of complications 
Mourning scornfully at God for this lesson 
A experience ,maybe a major deterrent  of my soul from blazing flames 
ignited from my own misery in lack of discernment 
Burning desires echoed through my soul
ravaging my mind even more 
as i looked at my reflection with contempt 
Worthless! i muttered 
With all the negativity swallowing me like the evening sky that gradually conquers the dusk 
My head unable to process , unable to perceive the point and the lesson 
So i stand here motionless as pale as a ghost 
and watch the mayhem and tumult u have caused to my soul 
My soul that has been set to fire 
And my slowly decomposing patience smirked and said to me “ I warned you”
                            - STANDREAN
