FIRE
Arrows pointing
in all directions
making us remember
good and bad
all that we have experienced
and the pain
we try to bury deep
within our soul
It triggers and we remember
whether we want to or not
the highs and lows
of our troubled
and unpredictable lives
Times we were in love
times we were in pain
all create the person we are
whether we like it or not
When we’re relaxed
we allow ourselves to dream
and reminisce
about what has happened
and what is yet to come
Fate predicts our mood
whatever happens
was meant to be
Jumping flames
mimic emotions
from depths to heights
we are pulled and pressed
into remembering things
we believed to be
forgotten
Why those memories
re-emerge
we'll never know
just accept that
there is a reason
Fire burns
as do old memories
different shades of heat
different degrees of
pain
hurt
and
sorrow
Good memories
are always present
but it is the pain
we have experienced
that we must
not
forget
For how we dealt
with the pain
has molded
who
we
have
become
