Wild Fire

What I love about poetry
It ignites the flames
They burn deep within
And it’s a burning passion

Words come together
Words that inspire
Words that take you higher
They sing with fire

These words come alive
Like a beacon in the night
They help you stand and fight
In the darkest night

Your spirit animates
Opens the golden gates
When you’re at the ending
The ending celebrates

We go through hell
Come out with a story to tell
All our pain, all our sorrow
Helps you see a better tomorrow

So you see
Come together with poetry
These are the words
From a brother to another

Lift up your voice
Make your choice
With this burning desire
Let it spread like wild fire
