Immolator

I fear you.
Standing by the door
Your trauma burns me,
Your eyes remain the eyes they were before.
Nothing else does.
Like a snake's scales your body covered in burns.
Reptilian, fingerless, earless.
A tear tracks down your pink face
A reminder of the vulnerable humanity beneath.
In a moment of psychosis:
petrol, flames, scars.
Regret, guilt, pain.

  1. Hi,

    I read about you when I googled on documentaries! You seem like an interesting person. I want to make documentaries aswell and incorporate the bigger questions about life, since I feel that it is them who make us human..
