Soul and Air

Artair's picture

To move on with your life,
is to let the fire burn,
letting it burn bright,
never flickering to go out.
The day it goes out,
is the day the water runs,
it runs through heart, soul, and air.
It is invisible, yes, invisible,
but exists,
wherever there is a flame flickering.
The water waits inside others,
others who would take your fire,
and use it against you,
don't let that happen.
Throw the fire at them,
let it burn bright,
and free yourself from pain and suffering.
The fire is yours,
weild it.
