Best Arsonist Poems

he was there just like before 
my mind wandered
as he gazed 
out the window 

as traffic approached 
he opened his jacket 
retrieving a pack of cigarettes 
Winston's his favorite brand 

he would tap the butt 
on the table top 
suddenly he took out a match...

You set the bridge on fire, burning away all of our connections
You are the most calculating arsonist looking back in reflections
You might as well have staked my heart like vampire rejections
You dragged me in like smack spoon fed with sweet cooked injections
I, no more than...

Please leave
Before I come back for what was mine,
The remorse I faked to buy us time,
The hate you await to make it right.

I made my way out 
Of the house I burned down.
Nothing is left for me now;
No one else had heard the sound.

I waited...

From day one he was trouble
His parents knew on sight
Their bundle of pure joy and bliss
Was somehow, just not right

It wasn't in his nature
To be part of a gang
He like to be off by himself
He liked things that went bang

He was troubled in his school...

Set it ablaze.
Within my temple that is boundless.
Set it ablaze.
My limitations which are groundless.
Set it ablaze,
The Phantom of our shadows. Soundless, in its measure.

Burning without flame.
Yet these ashes seem to linger.
Burning without Fame.
Or even lifting a finger.
Burning without blame.
No matter where you bury this treasure.

There he stood
Rooted by love
To the land.

There he swayed
A welcomed guest
Of Neptunus Rex.

There he soared
Swelled by pride
Into the blues.

There he fell
Beneath waves
Of emotions.

There he flowed
Down river
Into depression.

There he crawled
Into her arms
Sought compassion.

There he felt
The fire desire
Roast raunchy. 

There he burned
At both ends
A wax museum.

There he...

You're going to know my support for the rest of our life's long race
I am in spectacular awe of every obstacle you've had to overcome and face
My unbridled love for you has never been out of place
I will stoke your flames throughout time and space
Every...

Spark’s ignition, rage of fire
Entice his mind with burning desire
Match heads grind
Sulfur lined
Burst the flames which never tire

The target chosen, his mind set
Over perfection, he loves to fret
Explosives wired
Something admired
He has built another bud, timer set

These are his fire flowers
Blooming once, burning for hours
Click bang
Laughter...

Arsonist

    I burned our love to the ground
    myself. I soaked it all in
    kerosene and lit the match
    and threw it at the very heart.

   There was cruelty, ugly words,
