Eyes open now to watch the fire,
Wake such reveries with slow revive
To feel the meltdown burn alive.
Crystalline snow sings its first hello
Just to ring out a last goodbye.
Jack Frost knows to forsake the flow
Just to miss the springtime cry.
If cracked and frozen from this cold world,
Hold a candle to a broken heart
And let it burn just to catch a spark.
I'd rather live and feel the pain
Then to have never felt at all.
You'd never grow if you stopped the rain
Yet the sky still cares to know how tall.
Accepting burn just to feel the sun
Shadows dapple pained ultraviolet rush;
Go quiet to hear the wind hush.
Yet I'll live through the darkest day
To watch the turn of all the brightest night.
Climb uphill in guilt till my debt is repaid,
Then fall again to take flight.
