Keeper Of The Flame

you light
my heart’s fire
the keeper of
the flame
no silence
in the shout
no longer
to be tame
and if silence
be golden
let this
be bright red
ignited now
within it’s blaze
let burning
words be said

"...the rest is silence" (Hamlet) Shakespeare

Sometimes I think that the sun
is the whole of everyone...
every person holding flame
we are all sun...we're all the same.

This is almost scary, it's said with such resolution. Usually I am distracted by the use of color but here it worked well.

Most awesome Helen! Excellent use of a metaphor with great flow, rhyme and charisma that only you possess~

Can I be your #1 fan?!
