Your spirit is a fire

Never knowing love

We longed for a warm hug

And our beings contracted

With that longing

We only learned to bury

Turning always towards the coldness

Suffering deep inside

The hollow barren feeling

To know the warmth of love

First we must be honest

To every single pain that lives inside our hearts

Never turning away

Nor blaming ourselves for trying so hard

Only understanding the reason why

Because as the poet says

Hurt serves this purpose

To fuel the fire inside us

That can ignite

Our quest for healing

No matter how far we travel

Along that rocky path of stone

We must never lose sight of the sun

Even as it constantly disappears

Behind the clouds that hide it

Keep trusting in the power of your soul to heal

Be real

And never give up

Knowing that your spirit is a fire

Contains a fire

That must never become

Completely dampened

Or extinguished

By sorrow
