Fierylight

fierylight, why do you remain adamant

i whisper the echoes of my soul

my heart, on an alter of sacrifice

i run, i stumble, groping in darkness

am i a shadow, lost

fierylight, why do you ignore me

i stand on the isle of nostalgia

my eyes transfixed and saddened

i call out, i shout, longing and hoping

am i a ghost, unseen

fierylight, why have you forsaken me

i write the words of my being

my affection, hanged on the tree of promise

i watch, i witness, aching in silence

am i a lover, jilted
