FireA Poem by LightConstantine said that fire purifies the soulFire (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 © 2010 Light |
