Flames in my Heart


Friday, September 2, 2011

In my heart I hold a flame, soft in it's glow,
It flickers with the winds of change, how ever they may blow.
It's brighter than the sun, blinding with it's light,
It forces out the shadows, it cancels out the night.
In my soul I hold a gem, it's value never known,
It's diamonds on the ocean, it's beauty never shown.
It's sought out by the rich, it's needed by the poor,
My soul simply hides a gem, never seen before.
Inside my mind i fight my demons, lashing out of control,
Fighting with my inner strength, for the value of my soul.
They want to take my happy, they want to take my smile,
They want the better part of me, to be gone for awhile,
I struggle with my past, to leave it all behind,
To take the pain i have kept, and keep it well confined,
I pray for a different ending, than it's been many times before,
I pray the flame within my heart, can find someone to adore.
I look inside myself, to see exactly what I need,
I take the pain from my past, and slowly let it bleed,
In the pain is healing, lessons are a must,
In my heart I'm finding, maybe I can trust,
In my soul I'm seeing, where I want to be,
In her eyes I'm feeling, maybe I'll be free,
In my mind I'm hoping, the future's not the same,
I never want to loose, the brightness of my flame.
