Podium Friendly Response 

       To the Girl In Flames 
Keep Your Fire burning bright 
Don&#8217;t let yourself get lost 
In the Shadows of the Night 

We all have a desire to be somebody 
Especially in the eyes of someone we love 
But this desire can cause us pain and we
Can forget our blessings from above 

It doesn&#8217;t matter what the world thinks 
You can&#8217;t consume yourself with this 
For it will surely be a Scorpions sting 
When you deserve a Butterfly Kiss 

Take a Rose and be the flower and 
Don&#8217;t let yourself be throned 
You can be the winged Angel 
And not the Woman Scorned 

You must chase your dreams 
For they will never chase you 
But as you go through life 
Unto yourself be true 

Being first is overrated and putting 
Others first is a better reward 
Otherwise you might find you&#8217;ve 
Been stabbed with a double edged sword 

When being first Is not the goal 
You might just find yourself there 
You&#8217;ll be proud that you took the 
Time to open your heart and care 

To The Girl In Flames trust 
I&#8217;m not trying to take jouissance
Forgive me of my poor words of wisdom 
With my Podium Friendly Response

When you let go of your desire to be first
You will find yourself there.
