*These moments, so fleeting
Deep breaths that I can finally take
The peace, so rare
A time that I can quit thinking of what's at stake
**This peace, seemingly imaginary
An illusion created in solitary
Yet the fire ignited, so fierce
A proof of a wonderful reality**
I inch trembling fingers into the blaze
Flames licking my fingers, carressing each knuckle
Skin popping and blistering but yet
I defiantly hold the fire's gaze
**This flame, had me create a belief
That many things are not what they seem
It may seem silent
But a furious war is blazing**
Breaths caught in my throat
Air trying to crawl out from my lungs
A step back, another
In search of the peace, that melodious song
**And night falls...
So we fall asleep, tenderly...
When the sun rises again...
...Those moments and flames await***
