Fire Current
My feet took me to what we can call a path
How I reached to this crossroads
Did I walk on unknown trail so blindly?
As I chose a trail
Walking in a terrain of pebbled path
My feet gets accustomed to its touch
Walking on stones
The road does not end over here
A river of lava and fumes
Cuts my trail
The color of fire
Adrenalin arouse
Hidden soul appear
My heart urges to be free of me
Waiting to sink in this burning soul
I think no more
My feet walk on the burning stones
My soul melts in fire
Though my feet are burning in pain
I convince me that I’m born to do this
I walk without fear
Unexpectedly, I seem to be absorbed
Into a circle, an immense current of fire
Anger that burns my skin and bones
I’m caught in this burn, all pleads run in vain
The fire dies when all is burning ashes
