The Fire

The pieces of wood that burn
The embers that turn and churn
Such ferocious anger resides inside
The flames, that take you for a ride
Get lost in the deepest fiery depths
But maintain that you do respect
Or it can burn you to the ground
Razing memories that can't be found
Get lost in the animal that is there
But so calm while you simply stare
The fire inside us all, its trapped
Natural elements that have snapped
So we try and control, take comfort
Dwindling moments that use to hurt
Soothed by the wildest of beasts
That eats all as it flickers and feasts
That is the most beautiful of fires
Watching heal what has transpired
