Let The Flames Begin


All we became A broken, vulnerable world Fragmented memories, desires, a spark Going around in circles we twirl Put my everything into this dream Let the sparks turn into a fire, burn Grasp everyone around it Teach them, and they will learn We will dance and shout with jubilee Becoming kings and queens Yelling out with resonance Smile and just scream Take our flaws, use them as weapons As hard as it will be Regret is inevitable, Getting past it is the key Every problem I’ve ever faced, Has an everlasting meaning There’s promise in their worth That’s the reason we’re singing We will dance, and sing Rejoicing in this day They can’t take our dreams Even if they take everything else away Strip us of everything Go ahead, steal our pride You can never take this joy That’s brewing inside I will stand firm on his promises Until my last breath I will go beyond others doubts I would even face death Praise him brothers and sisters For death he has overcome Covered our faults And with him we become Brand new people, With a hope and a passion Things of this world may go out of style But God is always the latest fashion(poems go here)
