- You Are The Flame
You Are The Flame
Remember always. A poem.
Remember always that you dance
The line between wild and tame
You are the source of light to the world
For you, you are the flame
You are the flame,
From kindling to ash
Blaze high and mighty,
Be something that lasts
You are the flame
From spark ‘til explosion
Attract with your greatness
Set others in motion
You are the flame
From burning to ember
Inspire faith within them
Make them remember
Run toward the darkness
You be the light
Run toward the broken
You make it right
Run toward the hopeless
You give them hope
Run toward the reaching
You be the rope
Run toward the cold
You keep them warm
Run toward the drifting
Help weather their storm
Let you remember that you are water too,
Fluid and constant in motion
The innocent drop of morning dew
And the most powerful wave in the ocean
Let you remember if you choose to be wind
Violent and mean you can blow
Or a gentle breeze, to them you can send
in the most beautiful direction to go
Let you remember that you are the soil
From which beauty and nourishment grow
And lets not forget you’re the men and their toil
Reaping so others can sow
Give warmth to the freezing.
Give sight to the blind.
Have the pain of the bleeding,
The powers of the divine.
You are the flame,
the fire,
the heat
Do not burn out and be your own defeat.
You are the flame,
The flicker,
The light,
If you burn you must, you must burn bright.
