Fire

A Poem by Light
"

Constantine said that fire purifies the soul

"

Fire (2009)

My father once said,

That "fire fuels life,"

As he placed a match

In my outstretched hand,

A tear fiercely fell

From his fiery eyes.

He muttered to his son

“The world was mine.”

I didn’t understand

Until he let go of my hand

And I stood alone

With only my match.

I then wiped the tear

That lay on his face

As the match became lit

With a bright white flame.

I held it to my eyes,

Igniting them to life

And instantly knew

The world was mine.

I set the Earth aflame;

It burned in my father’s name

As everything turned to ash

And only fire remained

That makes me feel thrills and affect on me...It`s amazing ,fantasy, symbolical and deep..
as everything turned to ash
and only the fire remained
I ask myself, what is behind the fire?
