I have a flame burning in me, wild and destructive, creative and passionate,
Until the day I die, though I try, it can never be extinguished.
So I embrace the flame and in doing so embrace me, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made
When I forget who I am my demons return, in the very act of forgetting, the destructiveness is free to run wild
To wish it away or hate the flame is futile
So I welcome the flame within me, burning along the edges and margins where other flames do not reach,
Forever causing me joy and pain
For my flame within is a refining fire
It’s time to live again
