That day the skies were on fire,
So was my brain
The thoughts burning me inside out.
And the fire spread to my heart,
Burning bright with a hope
That I could douse the fire in me,
But do I really want to douse the fire,
That dragged me through dark nights?
The fire burning in me is the passion,
It spreads like wildfire,
Across every nerve in my body,
Tensing them up for something better.
I'm on fire,
The burning pain is terrible and yet,
Do I want to put out the fire,
Be docile and let my glow fade?
The glow of fire
Needs the pain of burning
And the fiery me is ready to burn out,
But glow till the end.
