Fires in my heart won't dissipate;
this feeling will not go away
I am afraid to sleep anymore;
it doesn't seem
to matter
I walk everywhere in a trance;
a daze of sorts;
Wide awake
I can't concentrate
I can only muse
and muse
let all the feelings out
I lay face down on my bed
trying just trying to let it all go;
I don't know what to do
I feel like a lost puppy
my eyes grow big
this feeling is in my eyes
my heart
it should leave:
so why will it not?
When will this feeling leave?
Maybe years,
maybe months;
Will this feeling follow me around
for years months...
Oh it has already been months
It's a fire so strong
it is much too large for me to control
A forest fire I think
So what do I do?
I guess eventually
every fire falls down to the rain
where is the rain anyway?
Not a damn cloud in the sky!

Wonderful pen! I appreciate the emotion in this... although It's not exactly what I'm looking for. It is still a work of art! Best of luck.
Keep it up =] -

I really liked the vocabulary and word use in this poem.
