Through the years that boil you
And the lessons that you learn
Let the fire not betray you
Each time, brighter, may you burn.
The bullets that rip your chest
& the cracks that make the heart churn
Let your scars screech, but in zest
O darling, higher, may you burn
For the love you lost & gained
And the deaths that had your concern
For the acid of your eyes that rained
I pray you never stop, but, burn
Let the flame consume your soul
Don’t cry if the gods are taciturn
World's blind to the ash of your whole
Don’t let the fire die. Till the end- burn.
