there is a fire, deep in my brain
a fire to string a meaning together
it pulls on the strings of my heart
pulls my arm as it runs from me
burns a hole and wants it filled
leaves me gasping for air
grasping for something to hold
blindly following it to the endthere is a fire, deep in my heart
a fire to make them see
it forces me to think, think, think
spreads into the forest of thoughts
burns down the trees like it’s easy
pokes me in the side, sharp like needles
leaves me to bleed out on the ashes
blindly following it to the endthere is a fire, deep in my belly
a fire to find
it pulls on my hair, keen
leads me to an open field
urges me to sit and wonder
pushes me to the stars
wants me to get there
blindly following it to the end
