Fire started, deep within my heart;
Splinters burning, driving me to do my part.
Fire growing, burning in my chest;
Watching left and right, trying to do my best.

People watching, thinking that I’m in pain;
Pouring water, feeling that I could gain.
Trauma building, for no reason at all;
Confusion creeps in, hoping my fire would stall.

Staring, glaring, saying it’s a mistake;
**** those people who fear to risk the stake.
Walk in silence, one day they would know;
Meddling with fire only gets them low.

Fire blazing, deep within my soul;
Nothing’s going to stop me from achieving my goal.
Fire roaring, it must be satisfied;
Crushing other thoughts, a constant river cried.

Fire never ends, deep within my being;
Ending the long race, never thought of fleeing.
Fire goes on, deep within myself;
Won the long race, not much of a scar or cleft.
