Poem Commentary

just trying to get back into the swing of writing. College life is difficult and I definitely need an outlet. This poem is about someone I just meet and I needed some way to vent...sorry if it's choppy

Burn in yearning

I need you to promise me
please I need this to be.
don't dare touch my skin
for it puts fire in my heart of tin
don't look into my eyes, please don't yearn
If I fall I know I wont survive the inevitable burn
don't whisper my name
i'd lose all that keeps me tame
please don't stand that near
i don't want to explain my fear
I love you but I long to not
you make my head feel like i've been shot
are you really for me
or is this a lie never meant to be

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
