Analysis of Flag On



It's obvious you're gone,
my lines are like flames,
from a dragon.
Causing you 3rd,
degree burn,
you still didn't learn.
The more you hate,
the greater I get,
check the reflex,as I step.
Forever blessed,
words fall out from the sky,
keep you wondering why?
Writer's block has taken hold,
upset over what,
you can't control.
Bold but never too,
cocky,see the road ahead,
right in front of me.
Continually even if it's rocky,
not going to allow,
anyone to stop me.
So,Flag On...
