Fire
by c. vesely
i watch my heart engulfed in burning flame
the colors of my childhood turn to black
i search throughout but find no one to blame
so much of my life i will not get back
the fire moves fast and consumes it all
table, seats, photo albums, christmas tree
i sorrow that this misfortune did fall
but it cannot destroy my memory
with everything ash, i have what i need
your arms around me, the hope in my heart
all my possessions had filled me with greed
i now look forward to another start
come with me love on a lovely journey
vagabonds we both shall be—lost and free.
