Burning inside...

I have been meaning to complete this poem for many years. Maybe the words will flow today...

Like a tree on fire,
Rumbling and falling,
I am burning inside...

Like a broken heart,
Set on desire,
I am burning inside...

Like a thirsty fool,
In a mirage,
I am burning inside...

Like a forest fire...
Silently spreading...
To places inside me
I have been fearing...
Moment after moment,
An eternity of dying...
And a heart in flames
Silently saying...
I am burning inside...
