I Need Fire In My Ashes Poem by Mark Heathcote

I need fire in my ashes.
I need living flames once again;

A hand that reads braille without burning
Oh, wind in my sail
Oh, and a tranquil calm in the centre of a cyclone.

I need fire in my ashes.
I need living flames once again;
I need a new love to warm my bones.

Like a phoenix needs a new fervour.
I need to add a new fire to my ashes.
I need new puffs-of-magic.
Living entangled flames once again.

I need you to rekindle these ashes.
I need you to clothe my soul.
With your craving green jealous eyes
So I can just lie-burning here-paralyse.
While my heart is-near-reenergize.
