Fire

There is this fire inside of me.
Sometimes it gives me hope,
Sometimes it makes me fall in love,
And sometimes it scares the **** out of me.
Because within me is a fire that cannot be put out even with all the water in every ocean 
of every part of the world.
This fire in me has a life of its own.

-And it does not know the meaning of sleep.
