The change that will come

Poetry: Fire burn, let me learn.

Fire burn, let me learn,
The simple rules reborn in me,
Giving me life, something free.
Fire burn I will relearn,
What it's meant to be to desire something and yet be free.

These words are all I have to describe a change in my life,
Out of the darkness and into the light,
Burn bright sweet memories for I am turning like never before,
The challenge is here and I will not bow,
I will look at it and question how.

Challenge burn bright in me,
For I have beaten insanity,
I have beaten down temptation and distraction.
But one tie keeps me at the river bed.

This is my challenge and I accept it personally,
To respect my fellow woman and man,
To feel what they feel and to learn what they learn,
To have love for one,
And to wait until that day comes.
