BURNING EMBERS
Whenever you'd aim, make sure its high
For there is a world beyond the blue sky
Let those shining eyes never lose the sight
Fuel the desires, fan the flames with all might
To keep those embers burning bright.
The sands of time will ruthlessly blow
Swim against the current, dare the flow
No matter if the waters are deep or shallow
Warm the surging hopes, better blazed than mellow
To keep those embers burning bright.
Each time the flickers wane and dreams ashen
Hone your skills up in a different new fashion
Glide forward taking everything in the stride
Silently working away with a fiery pride
To keep those embers burning bright.
Dousing the fires, threaten thunderous showers
Guard your spirit with fierce lionic powers
Rising from the ashes like a phoenic, bounce back
With "the will to win" all fears simply lack
To keep those embers burning bright.
One is just so impossible to beat
Who never gives up nor accepts defeat
Pure effort, not a span of years nor a gap of miles
Sheer desire, not vain regrets nor sighs futile
To keep those embers burning bright.
