Let Not Your Fires Die
Is there a flame within your heart?
Or, have your fires become dormant
By the unbearable weight of suppression?
Has your will adjusted to the size of your flame?
Rekindle all fires, from a dormant flame
Awaken it! From one that smolders,
Reenergize and reanimate!
Let not other people’s fires control
And be the reason yours die out.
Let yours burn on as an eternal flame,
Moving you on into the success of all tomorrows.
