The Flame

She stares at the flames ,
At how they crack and whip in 
no known direction, 
She watches them dance In the 
wind, 
With no set path,
She envies fire..
For it represents the freedom 
she desires... 
A tear escaped her eye,
She reaches out but the flame 
dies
Realizing that her own breathe 
killed the flame,
She was always holding herself 
back...
Killing the fire within her with 
her own fear,
The fear dwelling in those damn 
tears.

Hi Ileana! Just stumbled by accident on this poem, and I am very much impressed. You seek freedom, but it does not always come free of charge! // paul
