Gentle Heart

Running for cover, from darkness and doom.
Barely recovering, running on fumes.
You cannot escape, it's draining your soul.
No one can relate, you feel so alone.
A vulnerable position, weakened and faint.
Vultures take positions, you try hiding the pain.
They breathe fire about those who care the most.
Now your heart is empty, all you see is a ghost.
Put on a smile, but barely survive.
You wish you could thrive, you fight for your life.
To be a flame lighting the candles of others.
It’s all just a shame if you cannot recover.
For your soulmates, you re-emerge ready to fight.
With your internal fire, you reignite
and shine brightly to light the way for them.
With clear vision, combust on assailants condemned.
Go forth kindling love for the angels on earth.
Filling their hearts with the warmth they are worth.
