"The Unknown Flame #2"

"The Unknown Flame #2"

By Arcassin Burnham 

Screaming from the shadows hoping somebody hears ya,

Even though nobody cares to notice ya,

Mindful eyes get left dry but they fall down on ya,

There's no secret to your flaws cause they're exposing ya,

I see the fire in your eyes , you're a tough one,

The cookies don't crumble here but others try to persuade the weak,

Reavaluating life choices and separating the good friends from

The bad friends knowing they all despise ya,

Here! You help me with this one thing and I'll promise you won't 

Ever have to see me again , talking with everybody,

So you don't have to live with so much selfhate and doubt in ya,

You're strong,

I'm proud of ya,

You usually don't talk too much,

But out of these wannabes, you're a different breed,

With situations in life that'll make you hang yourself then kick over

The chair if you need,

But don't do that please.

"What doesn't kill you ...... You know the rest".

"The Unknown Flame #1"

"The Unknown Flame #1"

By Arcassin Burnham

A young boy training to be a fully grown man is practical,

I was thinking about my step dad and how he was an asshole,

Remember all the times when I would wanna send my soul

Off to heaven,

Getting ready for a lucky 97,

Birth years are overrated anyway when people struggle just to

Love The one they dream but knowing half the people would

Rather see you crumble just to make themselves so noticeable

In a situation you could not hold your own any longer,

Just to save your life,

Playing all the cards , don't mean it's right,

Sitting at the red light , waiting for the green to take me

Home with a 40 ounce can and mind full of doubts hoping I just

Make it through this life somehow,

If you didn't know then , your about to know now,

Tried to kill myself 6 times without making a sound.

"#believe".
