Embers

Hello! This poem came out of my head yesterday. I just felt like writing and tried my best to rhyme a few words so that it sounds poetic. Enjoy!

There were days when each hour was a war I fought to survive

There were nights full of nightmares and I dreaded closing my eyes

There were skies that burst open with a downpour to drown me alive

But the world took a spark like a match in the dark and the fire brought me to life

So I’m fanning the flames to climb so high ‘cause there’s no other way we can stay alive

‘cause we are burning bright

As we all unite

And when it’s all said and done

We’ll shine like the sun

So don’t let the fire die

And we’ll watch the sky

As it fills with light

And though the embers are new

Whatever you do, just don’t let the fire die

And you’ll find there’ll be mornings when the ashes and embers are cold

But you will fight with a passion and you’ll never stop, ‘cause you know

Yeah, you know, it gets better

And your story is yet to be told

Every push, every shove, every war, every love

Yeah, the coals are beginning to glow

So, I’m fanning the flames to climb so high

Whatever you do, just don’t let the fire die

Peace and Cheers!
