When I look into the water
I see my face stare back
I see the trees above me
In shades of green and black
The fire that rages in the heart
Destroyed the trees and
Blew the forest apart.
The fire that rages
Also gives me fuel
To do all the things I need to
I see the eyes of someone
who is motivated to win
And the eyes that have seen
All the brutal things
That plague the young mind within
But my reflection does not show
The demons I hide
That burn and glow
I see the burnt remains of the tress
I see the burnt remains of my soul
I close my eyes.
And when I open them
I realize I am home
