Literature Text

Burn, let it burn.
Watch the flames climb
Higher, and higher.
Just let is burn.

Don’t try to save this masterpiece
You thought that you created.
In the end what’s the point?
All the while it was hated, hated.

You can’t save what wants to be lost,
So just let it go, there is no point.
Feel the heat from the fire,
Your soul it will anoint.

What’s destroyed here, what’s gone?
Nothing but the past that haunts
Everything you could ever be.
Do you know what it wants?
You… destroyed.
I wrote this in late August of this year. It focuses on the need to let go of the thigns we hold dear on this earth in order to gain what is eternal.
