Goal Poem #4
Your light so mesmerizing, all else fades to black
I stare in awe, again youve hypnotized me to come back.
The ritual begins, I sense you wanting too call my name
You say, "Come here girl, come closer to my flame."
You promise me relief through the pain I so desire
As i put the metal object into your burning fire.
Seconds pass and I eagerly press it against my skin
At 400 fahrenheit I feel you burning me deep within.
Flesh begins reddening, a design is now being formed
The utensil is back in your blazing heat to get rewarmed.
Finally relief is released in the room that is oh so dark,
As you say goodbye, you release a never forget me spark.
I stare in awe, again youve hypnotized me to come back.
The ritual begins, I sense you wanting too call my name
You say, "Come here girl, come closer to my flame."
You promise me relief through the pain I so desire
As i put the metal object into your burning fire.
Seconds pass and I eagerly press it against my skin
At 400 fahrenheit I feel you burning me deep within.
Flesh begins reddening, a design is now being formed
The utensil is back in your blazing heat to get rewarmed.
Finally relief is released in the room that is oh so dark,
As you say goodbye, you release a never forget me spark.
