You Are My Fire

 

 

You breathe me alive with inspiration

And I fly with creativity on your breeze!

Everyday I deeply observe

All that lies before me

My dilapidated heart

Tired of diurnal and tedious agony

Rises awake to dance,

Sing a new song

And stretch my wings to soar!

 

You are the one the world hardly knows

Yet faces the foreign as familiar

And as I listen beyond

The notorious noise

Meaning and music

Enlivens my mind

The elusive enigma and energy

I absorb in tranquil abide

And become one with everything.

 

You are the heartglow inside of me

As I radiate the warmth of the sun

Every star in the cosmos

Pales in significance to you

Your kindness uplifts

My world amidst the universe

Your love is my fire

I burn eternally with grace

And stand tall in your acceptance.
