Fire

who are you?

i believe i've seen you before.

 

your anger ignited the monstruous volcanoes

that set lava down the roads

your teardrops flooded the canyons

and the valleys

your passion burned down trees

and plants and homes

 

i remember you had this fire,

this fire in your eyes

because you knew what you wanted

and when

and how

 

you struck life like lightning

and you were set on your journey.

 

you were so powerful

and intelligent

 

and you held purpose.

 

it was like the earth knew you

inhabited it,

as if everything that lived was waiting

for you.

 

i remember your fire.

i remember you.
