Have you look up at the stars lately?

I'm calling out to a flame to lick
my fulfillment
pull it away
because I have had too many things
tear
me down
and tonight I have
everything.

Where is the clock?
Not even a whisper
tells me that forever will end soon.

So live,
**** it in.

Because tomorrow morning
has never felt so full
of life
Scream with delight
you have done it
you will burn together
watch the flames wind higher into the night.

Draw all of the people close
who have told you that you are
worthy.
Kiss them.
And hope that they will one day sit atop their own mountains and watch the flames burn over other mountain sides.

Wrap them in the same love and hope that they remember
This feeling
of the universe's love.
