Tending Your Fires
written by: Any1mark

I have watched you burn the house
Your fire cursing more than darkness
Living in fantasy can corrode the soul
Particularly when they aren’t yours
Even worse when they are orphans
We can not hold the whole world
Nor make the Sun bend to us alone
Sharing is the breath of nature
Purpose of hope is to feed the being
Not a bug meant to be smashed
Right is not a birthright or measure
The world has been grey shades
Light and darkness playing together
Aggression is poison we drink
Hostility, sulfurous smoke choking us
Envy, blinding oneself with wants
Burning down my world means zilch
Yours is still empty and ice filled
Grab your lighter, your bills of need
As the flames get higher and higher
what about you do you ever see
Or still, curse your darkness
