The flame

A Poem by EveThreshold

I wait.

I wait and wait.

I wait for the spark, either in the heart or the pile of leaves and tinder.

Will you give me life?

Will you light me?

Fall in love.

Light the match.

Living and breathing.

Im amongst you everyday.

Within your homes.

Within your factories.

within you.

I help you live.

I am your drive.

I am your love.

I am your heart.

I am your soul.

I am you.

I am me.

I am life and all existance.

I am destruction.

I am death.

I am warmth.

I am energy.

I am a flame.

And this is.

The life of a flame.
