The New Me

There is something forming inside me It’s bubbling and bursting into a single bright flame This thing is calling out, telling me what it wants to be Maybe it will take the blame This fire wants to be your light It wants to be not mine, but yours The thing wants to be your guide through dark nights It is pouring through my own pores This fire is my passion It is what I want you to see The sad thing is, this fire doesn’t seem to understand compassion It only knows what it wants us to be This fire is nothing you can see It is the new me
