Fire or flame
11.04.06 (10:12 am) [edit]
The soul is fire, eternally burning,
Seeking flame in which to rest,
Thirsting for the infinite in a finite world,
Wandering in a desert of unfulfilled desire,
That only the eternal can fulfill.
The soul is made for the One,
Or else it will burn only for itself,
Inward spiraling for eternity
Into the fire that will only consume itself,
Eternal hunger for that which it was made, but seeks no more.
