The fire within

a powerful force

Able to destroy and

to mend

My ego

in fearful tricks

tries to make it

bow

–

This fiery force

makes my ego go for

a smile

Hide the fire and

let it go

At least not let it

show

–

The fire within

my truth to live

Is not to be hid

in fear

and in illusion

There to be real

To act

In this

now

–

The strength of fire

A life meant to be

Not to be quenched

in the falseness of ego

May I hold it

gently

Refined in contemplation

flow
