It mimics my intensity
Measures my volatility
Capturing my sincerity
As the ash is resurrected
***
A spark lingering, then
erupts and ignites
Lighting a pathway in the
dark of the night
A passageway hidden
a soft sacred rite
A spiritual insurrection
***
A supernova
Self contained
A flower garden
In the flame
It’s beauty hard
To be explained
Granting harm or fierce protection
***
Calling the lost to be Prepared
Protectors of dangers
Unaware
Both
Safe haven and caution, so please
Beware
A strength solely formed from
My reflection
***
The stars
shine and twinkle
Offering kindle
A match to preserve
capillary ignition
A powerful force
so the flicker won't dwindle
Aroused by their competition
***
But nothing impedes
its sure detonation
Or even comes close
to its shear perfection
The warmth
and the beauty, as it burns
the exception
To my soul's transparent
lantern
