Sparks Afire

bright skies swallowed by darkness
sparks of love set afire

glowing flames at my back
guide my way through the gloom
moving slow fearing whats lost
looking back I get burned
reminding me there's nothing left

Iv found my home
just enough rain to not get burned
just enough light to know I'm alive

I hope you find your light
brighter then i could shine
don't worry about me
ill be just fine.
