Embers of Empowerment

If fire could talk, what tales it would tell
Flames of love, and flames of hell
Consuming those in thoughts who dwell
And burning those whose secrets they'll never tell

Oh, if only flames could speak
They'd burn both the strong and the weak
Fueling those whom answers seek
Illuminating lives that feel so bleak

Yes, how I wish for flames to hold
Even if my soul they'd scold
Reforming fire so proud and bold
You live in my heart, your searing hold
