I have a vision
of rapturous pursuit
a chase of the dragon
so intensely acute;
that it requires intensive,
care

a fire so hot
it has burned many holes
to the core of my being
the depths and breadth of my soul;
these flames must remain,
fed

help me fuel this bright blaze
extinguish only my fear
wish me well on the journey
that which is most dear;
this thing called,
life

see my light through the cracks
the scars of life’s dealings
and I in turn
will cradle your reeling(s);
in this thing called,
love.
