Your love of me
like fire
sucked up all the air
left behind a pile of ash
crusted over with skin and fat
my charred boots all that remain
facing the direction I was running to
out of your life
but too late
Inspired by the prompt ‘Fire‘.

“sucked up all the air”….. powerful, especially with the image of the charred boots and the words “but too late” at the conclusion. Awesome!
