Love Poems No. 25 : BURNING LIKE A FURNACE

BURNING LIKE A FURNACE

Burning like a furnace

Traversing the globe,

Emitting sighs of blood

At last I sit and weep.

            Why can’t I forget

And revel like others,

Shutting tight my eyes

Think only of me?

I don’t think I can

Run away from myself

That craves and yearns for thee,

Let me not hide the truth.

Dr. Karickam
