Heart's Pyre
a poem
burning lands of shadowed heart these grounds of poorest virtue torched ever still by flames of alchemy a homeland less stable would not be found its very structures changing so swiftly ‘twas not a kingdom to thrive within instead, the girl sought a place for herself a home where she might reside and become the safest tree beneath which to slumber to grow into while she was reborn through inner flame holding while she found herself anew her heart to boast a bold and lost power of love a broken call for another to find someday perhaps, the one to hold it all rising — learning — thriving beside empowered to flow, in whole, without restraint would there be a soul to see and hold in trust? to be finally known by true believed when spoken from purest heart heard when called from darkness night brought home and held close in time of need to rise beside — allowed to burn and shine in time understood, that abundance surrounds its currents carrying her gently home ever becoming the one she is above all she is inside
