THE FIRE IN YOUR BELLY

in art •  7 years ago 

What do you do with the fire in your belly?
Do you watch it burn slow and bright and so gorgeous
like infinite sunrises
or do you throw the ocean against it
and hope to be normal?
To not stand out in a world where everyone wants to be a copy of a copy of a copy of someone
how do you protect it,and do you protect it?your sweet strange magic.
your fire that was given a name by the universe, a name that has a home inside of you and no one else.
I say this to you
because I have seen what you can do-let it burn me by
don't you dare lose that tender grin you get when you love something absolutely crazy.
