In my own world
I am a fire in a fireplace
Contained and able to light up a room
I can be spotted quickly, I enjoy to shine my light
I can get crazy and out of hand
If my fire is lit too long
Yes, this is me, in my own little world

© Emily O., Boynton Beach, FL

The author's comments:
This poem is about me when I am by myself. It represents my life in private and how I am a completely different person alone. It represents what I think of myself.
