The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Looks like this one did not transfer over with the changing of the boards. I'm posting it here for the sake of keeping my work together on one website.

 

Old Flames

 

I burned a photograph

of you the other night.

Struck the match and

touched it to the corner

and let your smile blaze

until my fingertips were burned.

 

Scratching smoke

inside my nose and on my tongue

drove the flowers of perfume

out of the air around my head.

And the crumbled ashes,

grey and flaking on the ground,

muffled the sounds

already distant footsteps

were making in my ears.

 

I burned a photograph

of you the other night.

She walked away from me

and I turned away from her

and opened up my wallet

and took out a photograph of you.

The scripts were ran on the day this one was posted it looks like, hence why it did not get moved in the process. I did verify that the post right before this one is present on this board.

 

Sorry for the troubles.

I can relate to that poem very much, for I have had to do that before to move on, its a sad thing. Cause now we are god friends and I trully regret it, but I cant change the past.. But as long as she doesnt know! :S
