Flickering Fire

Flickering fire,

Casting embers to the side

And forcing smoke up to the sky.

Flickering stars,

Shining light down on me

And spreading hope to all who believe.

Flickering soul,

Tearing confidence at the seams

And holding despair inside of me.

Flickering hope,

Reaching arms out to the light,

And pushing darkness out of sight.

Keep flickering like the fire,

Like the stars, oh my soul,

Until you shine past the darkness.

Until you shine out of control.
