Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Light My Fire

light my fire
I pray my fire 
keep burning
I hope it never 
stop 
cos what is life 
if within my soul 
am empty 

light my fire 
I live cos I 
want to live again
who knows is 
never the question here 
cos I master my inner soul 
so I bleed nothing else 
but what good life bleeds
inside and out of me 
I touch the world 
cos my fire keeps
burning
so when ever you feel it 
cold please 
light my fire


light my fire
be my friend
be my brother 
cos am a good keeper 
I will never let you down 
cos iron sharpen iron 
our bound will live on 
if we let the fire of love 
lead us only 
so when you sight my fire 
so cold please 
light my fire


light my fire
the world is cold 
so cold in cold 
Innocent blood 
I guess we are taught 
in ignorance
so I wonder what else 
they wish we be 
in this cold world 
yet out from their slogan
we still shine 
out from darkness 
my fire still burns
out from isolation 
we unite the world 
with this fire within
and out 
so when you see my 
fire so cold please
light my fire

light my fire
is proven that love 
is God 
is true that love 
is light 
is obvious when it burns
it life I refuse I will always
never give up to bear 
till I grave out of this 
cold world 
so if you are my friend
never let my fire cold so 
always when am down 
please help 
light my fire
