This Is Fire

he sits and stares out the window into the vacant lot that used to be his home.

he stares at empty picture frames that used to carry his heart.

hes got a heart full of gold but it never paid the bills.

the unaware eyes peer into the blossoming tragedy.

this is fire.

here lies the deceased victims of natures wrath.

fiery inferno covers up trapped souls in the vivid blaze.

sirens deafen the sound of astray violence happening in the inner city slums.

this is the city.

this is where hearts melted away and ashes carried away the victims accidental plans of the future.

sometimes in life what we wish for most happens to be the worst case scenario.

this is karma.

unbeknownst to the surroundings that now sit with embers like campfire marshmallows. 

unknown souls travel from room to room searching for half hearted souls to grasp unto remaining life.

demons are the only cause for concern as the rest of the angels are on a cigarette break.

this is fire.
