Set Your Heart On Fire

have you ever
dared to
fully live?
have you ever
set your
heart on fire?
have you ever told
that old, worn
tired
place,
“No not this time!”
will you lay
that sad
thief down?
the one
that shows
no mercy,
the one that
abandons you
leaving you cold,
trembling,
alone.
my love,
take my hand,
here it is
outstretched to you
like the soft
dawn’s light breaking
over the golden field,
here it is.
here it is.
