Burning
I am the spark in your eyes at night
I am the flame that burns in your heart
I am the promise of endless light
I am the lover of the dark
I am the fire Prometheus brought
The eternal flame of hope to all
I am the inferno Mankind wrought
The beautiful token of your fall
If you would catch me, beware my friend
Your undying pleasure may be your end

I do like this one. It reminds of the verse that Henry Rollins writes, only in a much more poetic form. Just so that you're not alone in digging up old pieces of personal poetry, I promise I'll post one tomorow morning. There's strength in numbers.
