Flicker, Flicker
Ego Tripper
fire in my gut, fire in my feet, my eyes, my heart, my breath
raging, roaring, frothing
my fire is green
rising
unyielding
extinguish this beast
extinguish me
this flame grew from jealousy

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
