The flames creep up upon me My mind surrounded my soul tormented With in the fire I am now Feeling it caress my body Burning away the old. A new feeling comes over me as a pain is felt in my back. Something is there fighting to break free of the flesh. The pain is unbearable for me. I fall to the ground screaming in agony as they burst forth from my back. Four large wings with blood red feathers stand ***** on my back The pain is no longer there. I stand up as the flames now die down. My wings now slump down around my shoulders They lay like a cloaked.

The Flames
The flames creep up upon me My mind surrounded my soul tormented With in the fire I am now Feeling it caress my body Burning away the old. A new feeling comes over me as a pain is felt in my back. Something is there fighting to break free of the flesh. The pain is unbearable for me. I fall to the ground screaming in agony as they burst forth from my back. Four large wings with blood red feathers stand ***** on my back The pain is no longer there. I stand up as the flames now die down. My wings now slump down around my shoulders They lay like a cloaked.
