Her Powers

Into the darkness she envelopes the night Seeking something special that eludes her eyes Just as she thought it was lost and out of sight Her hand catches on fire, there is no disguise She starts to burn, her body covered in flames She starts to remember bullies and their names They will suffer under her powers tonight Her pain will become their pain, she’ll make it right Russell Sivey

Somehow touches my heart so deep knowing She had to burn and feel so much pain..so that those who bullied her would feel her pain..Maybe soulful pain.This is a lesson to learn from..To always act kind towards others..Otherwise my soul can burn with pain too..A favourite!!
