Set Thy Heart On Fire

January 16, 2011
By Anonymous

Set thy heart on fire
T’would be naught but fair
For you tore mine into a thousand pieces
And scattered them through the air

I once stood by thy side
Eons passed as i stayed, transfixed




By thy false countenance
And a yearning for thy lips

Did thou ever shed a tear
As i moved away from thee
Did your poise never break?
Did you never dream of me?

You were my foolish addiction
And I broke thy hold
So throw away that wasted heart
For it has no place in thy dark soul

You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don't worry be happy! :)
