The Fire Inside
A thin faded smile
Settled on the face
Adjusting just to await fate
Crumpled within
Hacked in between
Burdened inward
Humbled by fate
Yet all tinted up
Crested with that defiant smile
Gentling gulping down fate
Bemoaning the fiery flames
Razing with rage
A once serene mind
Now huffing smoking sighs
All with a straight face
While Tinkling with the plain minded
