Fire
/*****As I sit by the fire
Wondering what burns to give light
I am narrowed with only one thought
It is my heart than has been put like a spire
It has been fueled by tears
And it rises up to the sky
My soul rests beneath its weight
The bitter defeat is parallel to the fears
The weight of the heap is from the words
Of the poems and songs I have written in loneliness
The defeat was just a perception
And the fear is of undefined roads
The sword works like a feather sometimes
Sometimes it cuts the spire and rises above
It resembles the flame of the blue fire
I sink into the pyramid when I hear the chimes
The bells are sounded by the rain
The gifts of nature not withstanding
The clouds are lucky that they can break open
I swallow all the fire and smile b‘cos it’s just in vain.*****/
