lost souls (Free verse) by aamir_trichy
The fire is burning them all They know not, Cause the fire is cold, Tis not burning with flames, Tis not leaving smoke, For its inside them that consumes the soul.

Up the ladder: Alert me
Down the ladder: The Story of Our Lives

Personally I would leave out 'Cause' (line 2) as it interrupts the flow, and I wouldn't bother with 'Tis' either. It's too archaic for the feel of this poem.

And they are by no means bad lines. I'm just suggesting what I would do if they were *my* lines; if you disagree then that is absolutely fine - I'm not going to tell someone what they have to do in their poems. Write for yourself first and foremost, but when you want to write for other people, listen to what they say.

Not bad, but you should know most poetry written in English is not like this.

Personally I'd leave the whole thin out and try again.
