Fearing fire
How’s one to know,
When incandescence will show?
Obsolete has become a pattern,
Who even takes the time, to look to Saturne?
Blinding flames in her eyes,
But I still turn to my lies,
Even when the comfort of ashes,
Could heal all of my gashes.
Why can’t I support conflagration?
When it brings me redemption?
When combustion in a wildfire,
Could be the path to what I desire.
My spirit can’t seem to meet my pain.
What will I do if I refuse to suffer?
Nothing can come if I am chained,
To the life I’ve spent in a smolder.
I need to meet my striking inferno,
And let it paint in iridescent colors,
The world I’ve emptied of flowers,
For the peace of the afterglow.
