Love Poem: Burning From Inside

Burning From Inside

I felt this burning anger, deep down inside
Like boiling magma, it just would not subside
Searing me from inside, like a piece of steak
Cutting through my flesh, pain is in its wake

More it wreaked it’s havoc, burning all it found 
All the time gaining strength, spinning me around
Hotter still it now burned, spreading further out
Seeking ways to expand, its now finds every route

It poured into my veins, coursing through my blood
Filled my mind with hate, in a never ending flood
The images it conjured, were graphic to the core
When I wanted respite, it drew them more and more

If giving up was my choice, I’d spiral into the dark
But I cannot let this anger burn, inside me like a spark
Quickly madness would overcome, again the lightless dark
Raving like a mindless man, my life would soon be stark

He only road left to me, is lonely, hard and long
To walk this lonesome path, I’d have to be life strong
To purge my painful soul, of all this burning hate
I have to release this deep love, for my true soul mate.
