Setting fire to memories
always leaves me with ashen
hands
And a smile on my face.
I love the way the flames
dance along the edges
Of serendipity, only to
end up in paradoxical enigmas.
When avarice becomes virtue,
I have to start a new fire within
to use as a guide for my hopes
and dreams.
When the clock strikes 12,
the fires will consume me
in a finale of light versus Dark.
