Raging Fire


Oh raging fire of true hearts desire
release me from love born untrue
I am ravaged from wars fought from desire
and this heart is now broken in two.
The passion life gave me all but destroyed me
consumed by the fire inside
lost to a world with so much that could please me
then left trapped with all I denied.
What have I learned from all that I yearned?
if not that pain and mistrust be my guide
love captured for a moment then lost forever
with only memories left deep inside.
So I beg of the life's fire that lights my desire
let me rest and gather the day…
there's more that I must see and more that I must be
love always affects me this way…
