Keep Burning Within
KEEP BURNING DEEP WITHIN
My whole being saturated
With everything I do in kindred times
I cannot help but disguise
Like plastic when heated, sometimes
It melt down strayed
In one form and substance.
As everyday I move
Go around mill and mixed with people
My life so haggard ‘tho simple
I’ve been the talk never parried
Although I shied always neither I huddle, so far
So good this burning spirit commends and chronicles.
Deep within arteries and veins
In you and my heart’s fusion
It keeps me alive and going
Big waves and smashing winds
Can ever puff me down
As the river keeps roaring to life’s ravine!
