fire within

"THE FIRE WITHIN"


This fire within me
has a name that I know.

This fire within me
has a voice that I have heard.

This fire within me
has a face that I have seen.

This fire within me
is a fire that burns within another.

This fire
has a name that I have said out loud.

This fire
has a voice that burns within me.

This fire
has a face of an angel.

The fire is the same!
It dwells in two places at once!

How can this fire be?!
This fire is like no pain I have felt before!

This fire,
burns me to the bone! And so far beyond. . .

THIS FIRE!!!
It MAKES me FEEL!

This fire that burns so deep,
is the greatest pain. . .

THIS RAVISHING FIRE!!!
BURNS!!

burns. . .
let it burn. . .

The consuming fire,
shares the pains of the angels.

The fire that sweeps
through the heavens.

The fire that burns,
so that life can be renewed.

This fire
makes choices for the fire alone.

This conquering fire
that has brought me to my knees!

THIS FIRE,
has caused these dry eyes to flow. . .

Oh. . .Sweet, precious fire,
thank you for warmth.

Fire within,
thank you for life

All consuming fire,
thank you for LOVE!
