The Ever-Burning Flame

The Ever-Burning Flame

In my heart there is a fire.
It can never be put out.
Through rain or snow
Its light will glow.
This is without a doubt.

When I need support.
I go to my internal fort.
Whether warmth or heat,
It's on repeat.
I am the happy-go-lucky sort.

Thought my heart does not burn.
In fact, for the flame, it yearns.
When it flickers,
And lightly snickers.
My heart gets so stern.

So I wrote about this flame.
Confidence, its name.
So through trial and war
I'll always have more
And it'll always be the same.
