Literature Text

The fire’s been prolonged
By hands that hate to watch it die,
No matter the case, the end’s
Always just as cold.
Nothing new, nothing changed,
Just another spark of passion
Upon fresh tinder, made
By the hands of those
Who never linger on
Charred branches.
Set ablaze by the thought
Of something new.
Despite it’s warmth,
The burning glow cannot
Save the flame without
A tender sacrifice.
Left alone,
It always feels the same
When the fire dies.
The poem's sort of about my breakup history, but I tried to be a little more clever than just writing a Taylor Swift song :P However it also somewhat represents the ending of a relationship in general.

Don't ask me why I wrote about this, but I'm NOT it in any way reflecting negatively on my past or depressed or any sense of the word. I just wanted to write a poem and this is what I came up with so don't think I'm upset or anything xD

Feel free to tell me what you made of it and I'll gladly explain what I actually meant if needed.

Enjoy ^^
