I Am On Fire Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

I am on fire, burning with desire
A flame that dances and flickers bright
Within my soul, a passion does aspire
To reach new heights, to take off in flight
My heart is ablaze, with a burning love
That ignites every inch of my being
With every beat, it rises and above
And through my veins, it starts freeing
The world around me, it grows so dim
For in my fire, all else does fade
All I can see, is a fiery hymn
That my heart and soul together have made
I am on fire, and I will not tame
For this flame within, fuels my very name
