Cooling the fire
August 26, 2013
I live in a box
away from the world
I act like I'm there
but the box is sealed
it wouldn't be this way
if the fire wasn't there
it burns but knows
not what it does
it thinks its protecting me
away from all bad
but it only makes things worse
forcing my mind to disappear
only one can enter
my world away from worlds
and cool the fire
and make it warm
