Unstoppable
Lexie Bodenhamer May 2014
Fire
Inside my lungs
Inside my throat
Smoke clouding my sight
I see no end
The flames are growing
With every blink

Tears flood my eyes
The fire is unscathed
All I see is red
The red from my soul

I scream
The fire is encouraged
My shrieks give the fire hope
Hope is unstoppable

I breathe in soot
My throat is disintegrating
Within my lungs
But not my heart

My heart fights back

The warrior of the body
No chance of giving up
The heart creates hope
Hope is unstoppable

The epic battle
The fire swings
The heart absorbs
The fire weakens
The heart does not

The heart becomes the fire
The heart prevails
The heart creates hope
Hope is unstoppable

— The End —
