Purgatorial Incarceration

Dragon's fire pierces my soul,
searing deep,
I am cleansed.
Gone all taint,
condemnation denied!
Hell hath power no more,
I am free.

"Dragon's fire?" Dear, my fire could have cleansed you in the same way, without being seared!! Very powerful piece, Chris....different!

She drew her breath when she espied
the knight in his despair
her fire had the power to heal
as she saw him kneeling there

The pain he felt was deeply etched
'round his eyes, wet with tears
she knew her cleansing fire could
give freedom to allay his fears

But in giving freedom to the knight
she lost a bit of her own soul
she died a little with each fiery tendril
but the knight stood up, now whole.

Well well well. Where have those demons gone?! You've been reading fantasy again... I like your words. (In short or in bulk!)
