surrounded now with fire that burns
her innocence can’t save her
this horror fills her with concern
her terror she will transfer
hope is lost in eons past
the scream dies in her throat
into the fires they are cast
what does this fear denote
letting go into the flame
she hears the world no more
nothing will ever be the same
her screams you can’t ignore

"saver" Did you mean "save"?
Wonderful rhythm and flowing rhyme to your poem. I liked how you expressed the growing terror she felt as she became cognizant of her peril. It added a great tension to the whole piece. Thanks so much for entering my contest!
