Holy Fire

Holy Fire

A Poem by Izzy Briles
"

Wrote this a few years ago, as a song.

"
Sit here waiting.
Hold on to me, I'm yours.
But, how long can I sit here wasted?
I'm so cold and alone, please stay with me.
I know, it hurts to be yourself sometimes.
Maybe, I know it hurts to be me.
Sometimes, you want to give it all away.
Right now I love you, please don't you leave.
I will never be the same, you took my heart away.
I keep thinking about you.
I will never be the same. every single day,
I keep dreaming about you.
what you put me through.
She cut her wrists and gave me cancer, now my body hurts.
Nervous ticks, god give me answers.
Well, yeah the bottle works.
The life we lived hit so hard, everybody's numb.
But, the answers never left us.
It's just a loaded gun.
I know, it hurts to be yourself sometimes.
Maybe, I know it hurts to be me.
Sometimes, you want to give it all away.
Right now I love you, please don't you leave.
I will never be the same, you took my heart away.
I keep thinking about you.
I will never be the same. every single day,
I keep dreaming about you.
Holy fire, fall down.
Awake your people now.
As we wait, for you.
Holy fire, fall down.
Awake your children now.
We still wait, on you.
We still wait for you!
I know, it hurts to be yourself sometimes.
Maybe, I know it hurts to be me.
Sometimes, you want to give it all away.
Right now I love you, please don't you leave.

This piece holds meaning, it holds some feelings, and I can appreciate the soul. However, I'd suggest if any critiques maybe not leave one word stanzas, but I was never one for dramatic pauses. I appreciate what you're doing out here.
