A home without a wall,
Our haven without ends,
A circle we all call
Our Family of Friends!

Something calls.
My waiting heart answers.
The fire
That I've kept inside,
Hiding,
Is released
In a blast
Of passion that is
Untamable.
A yearning for the freedom
Of an opened world.
A new
Plane of existence.
A new
Point of view.
A new
Life.
I am embracing
This fire;
This passion.
It is becoming my heart
and soul.
I am becoming fire.

It is the purpose of existence to know and be who we truly are.  You aren't "becoming" but  have always been "fire" - just maybe didn't know it.  With fire comes the burning of the old and this perhaps the start of a cycle that sometimes leaves us burnt but transformed. Enjoyed your words.
