POEM STARTER

Playing With Fire.

Write a poem which uses this as the central theme.

I Know

I remember the day

He confessed to me,

The overly cheesy words,

The cringey way

He spoke.


Though I said

“Yes,”

With naught else but

A simple warning.


“You know,

You’re playing with fire.”


He took my warning lightly,

He knew my fire shone brightly,

Yet he still played the game,

A futile attempt to tame

What’s inside me.


He’d show me off,

_God how he makes me scoff_,

But at least he treated me decent.


_Decent…_


He ticked me off

Beyond belief,

But when you play

With a flame like me

You’ll be burned beyond belief.


He treated me like a toy

As time went on,

_Oh lord I can’t wait_

_Until I burn him ‘til he’s gone._

__


He drives me insane,

Our conversations are bland,

Boring, dull,

So plain.


Soon enough though,

I know he’ll see,

I know he’ll burn

For playing with a fire like me.
