Eternal Flame

by Melissa S. Masucci   Aug 5, 2006


Reignite the flame
Of a once roaring fire
Which, like clockwork
Weathered a little rain
And slowly
Faded
To empty coals

A downpour, but not a death
With determination
Alike none other past
With a little sunlight
The rain dries
Time heals
And the fire ignites

This flame is unique
Unlike the others before
The strength is surreal
It will not smoulder
From a little rain
It will endure
Eternal flame

    I really loved how you changed things into this metaphor, wonderful... It really does sound correct, like eternal love is what i got out of it... wonderful job, 5/5!
