Source of My Success


Cracks are heard,

Sparks appear

Heat releases a warm essence

I caress the flames,

 

Others will burn in envy,

once they see it

It's never extinguished

Just dulled when at rest

 

I need it to fuel my burning passions,

To scorch away pain,

And light the torch in the dark

Very few hold it in their hearts

 

This is my fire,

Invincible yet breathtaking

I am the girl on fire

But I’m not the Mockingjay
