Pyro



Your eyes light up
like flame to a fire
behind them your hidden truth
of real desire
not what you speak on
but what you think
it's like the missing link
to a puzzle
to a game
many have seen you
but not all the same
behind those eyes
your true pain resides
hidden so deep inside
you learned not to cry
to release it you refuse
so you burn instead
lighting up the night
following your heart and your head
revealing true sight
most have not seen
it just comes so naturally
almost like your caught in a dream
something so surreal
it makes you think
makes you wonder
and wander about
you're like a secret siren
caught in a drought
or lost at sea
not really looking for anything
just spinning and grinning
fire a blaze
looking around
with your eyes you gaze
almost like your lost
in a human maze
just awaiting the end of days!
