Best Song Fire Poems
She was tall and lovely from 'way down south,
she had blood on her hands, blood on her mouth.
She got voodoo spells and incantations.
She lived on one of those big plantations.
Had she done something bad? Well I don’t know.
She went by the name of Marie Laveau.
She had golden skin and curly black hair.
Down near the bayou you could find her there.
With her big old snake wrapped around and 'round,
it was party time when the sun went down.
Cauldron would bubble and naked they'd dance.
Potions concocted, 'round the fire she’d prance.
She had a mojo hand, a black cat bone.
You’d never want her to catch you alone.
There were stories told of the men she’d charmed;
take her husband Jacques, he wasn't alarmed,
he just disappeared, he never returned,
just ashes left and the incense she burned.
Marie has a tomb down in New Orleans,
she'll be ever known as the Voodoo Queen.
Eternally lives as a big black crow,
the fire in its eyes is a reddish glow.
Scratch three X’s, leave a gift in the glass,
then make your wish, it just might come to pass.
“Hello, I’ve waited here for you, everlong”
Inside the deepest parts of me, I knew there was something wrong.
The call and echo whispering in the night,
My forever, I admit, I put up quite a fight.
“You ignite the fire in my eyes”
You clear my head from all those lies,
Bringing forth the truth, so I may rest my soul,
I now know it is you that is really in control.
“The warmth of your embrace melts my frostbitten spirit
You speak the truth and I hear it”
The fire inside is lit.
The need for understanding, silenced for a change
I use to grow tired, but then you suddenly rearranged.
“I'll never be the same, I'm caught inside the memories, the promises
are yesterdays and I belong to you.”
I grew my wings and flew,
The rain it has cleansing power,
Your presence is my strong tower.

My brain gauge is on E.
My mind's running on fumes.
Just when I want to be free,
My feet are starting to root.
My spirit's racing a mile a minute
Endless miles, this road's infinite
Tell me when did I begin it?
I really hate this commute.
Maybe, today's the day.
I'll fuel my fire and get away,
Won't let myself decay,
But I would if I'd stay.
I'm always restless all the night through,
My dreams won't come, I've no relief,
'Cause every where I turn I find you,
It's time we both turn a new leaf.
And one last stop for gasoline,
Pay to a washed up beauty queen,
A dollar in the Coke machine,
Wave goodbye in disbelief.
Maybe, today's the day.
I'll fuel my fire and get away,
Won't let myself decay,
But I would if I'd stay.
Firefall,
the fire fell,
out of heaven
straight to hell.
Fallen angel
burning wings
how the touch of
you still stings.
I know I'll never care again,
for falling angels on the wind,
who take you with them as they go
through the vortex,down below.
to spiral down,and in that spin,
to show you things that might have been.
caught between the earth and sky,
your love can't live,your love won't die.
and when the wings have burned away,
it's just a soul who's gone astray.
mere mortals cannot bear such pain,
as fallen angels in the rain.
the fire goes out
and love must die,
when angels can't
reclaim
the
sky...............
never wanted to be alone
all my life that's all it's been
one big show of happiness
one long trail of tears
never wanting to be alone
i pretend i'm all i need
i've gotta be somebody,anybody, but myself
i want to live each day as my last
hoping i'd attract someone like you
waiting all my life
pretending i'm all that i need
then you come into the picture
that's when fire met oil
burning my dreams to the ground
into a pile of ash
crashing what dignity i had
i bit off more than i could chew
as i brushed the ashes off
just so i wasn't alone
you've made a name for yourself
that's one step up from being nobody
now your the *******
that everyone's talking about
the one that everyone's staring at
now your the one alone
and i'm standing in the crowd
making a name for myself
i'm not alone
thanks to your hard lesson
when fire met oil
