Wildfire

Burning oh so bright

Lead me to the streams and steady waters

Whose calm rages on its own

Light up the night sky

Smoke stretching to the Heavens

Liquefy the earth with your red
Flames

Purify all that is terrible

And make me whole again

Burn your brightest on my darkest of days

The forest is no match

The land is too dry

Fill the void and claim all of me

Just as you have before

My mind is raging and racing

Once again

I need you

I want this madness to end

Swallow me whole

Let me bask in your bright flames

And engulf me so much

That all I breathe is fire

Smoke runs through my veins

And the lava runs my beating heart
