POEM STARTER

Inspired by BlueInk

"You loved me so fiercely that I burned; now, you'll only be left with ashes."

Write a poem that contains this line. You may modify it as you see fit, but the sentiment should remain similar to the original quote.

Hellfire

I am greeted before the Styx

The ferryman’s barren gaze may bear sympathy in hindsight

Nevertheless it’s duty fulfilled

And I am delivered where I deemed love lay waiting


It was bliss upon arrival

My soul wrapped in your diffused warmth

Before you ever knew I had came,

dancing in the Sirens song.


I was ignorant to the ferryman’s silent warning

Ignorant to my displaced presence

Ignorant to a telegraphed fate

Ignoring all signs pointing elsewhere


Mortal bodies were not made to embrace your raw warmth

Just visages of your love were fierce enough to burn me up

Before I am turnt to ash

I shall return to the heavens
