So adult content, and I hope you enjoy it. It's deep, as usual, but I hope you do enjoy it. Here goes. It's called just beginning. You cannot douse the fire within me destroy my house. I am the ember beginning you can't put me out. Silent smolder painful memory without a doubt I grow hotter I am winning I watch you walk slink away now I know you're grinning. Silently, I stalk, stretch about. Oxygen fuels me

You. Wow. This was incredibly amazing. So raw, so real. I just am really proud of you for sharing this, because I know sometimes it's hard to share the things that we are passionate about, the creative projects that we pour ourselves into, especially when they're connected to very personal experiences. So I just wanted to say thank you for sharing. I love it. Absolutely. You are incredibly talented, and poetry is one of my favorite things in this world

It just made me smile. And I appreciate you very, very much for sending me that light and love right now, because I love feedback. I love, love, love feedback. And of course, like anyone, especially when it's positive, it is difficult for a lot of people to share on topics they have been affected by or topics that are hard

Um. Hey, Renee. I'm trying to catch up on listening to everybody that I love, you included. I think this one is so fierce. I love that the part where you're like, you can't put out the fire within me. You can't douse my flames. The ember is going to keep growing, and it's going to burn you. I am going to get you. You are going to have me in your memory forever

I just want to take a minute to say thank you. Thank you for every kind words you say and for the awesome poetry that you share here as well. And I love that you think it's fierce. Thanks again

That was my own six sense of humor. I love that both neither of the last two comments have mentioned a specific thing that it's about. And I love that because I know what it's about. I'm surprised that men don't know what it's about, but I'm not surprised at all that men don't know what it's about, if you know what I mean, because, bless them, they're cute, but come on

You're, girl? Hells, yes. I'm loving all the fierceness on this platform. And I'm loving listening to all of your many colors and shapes. You're quite a talent. And I have to ask you if you're a Five fire sign. You have to be, or you have to have really strong fire placements. I just feel it. Feel it. Are you a Leo? Let me know

I like that type of poetry, but with the people that are here around me that I read it to, with those two men in particular, it's like they didn't even have a guess. They had nothing. Like, no idea. They were completely lost about anything, what it was about at all. And I'm like, okay, all right, then. I'm just going to see how it goes on this swell platform

It's. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love that you like it. I feel the fire. I am a redhead. That might be it, because I'm a virgo and my moon is aquarius, believe it or not. But I am fire. Like, I've always felt like I was fire, so I love that you said that. And, girl, you are fire. Fire
I appreciated every part of it and I'm so glad that you invited me to this and I'm able to be a part of this thread. It's been a minute since I've been on swell. I am trying to catch up now with all the different offerings during this poetry month. It's just so many. I have a list along of different people who've invited me to different pieces. And I love you all and I want to give equal time to everybody and be able to reply

I love, love, love you. And I hope you know that all those things that you say I am, you are as well. I 100% promise that to you, that is everything, everything that I know you to be. So, man, that makes me feel good
