Consolation
Location
It’s ok son, It’s ok
You hurt yourself as you crawled here
Let my embrace wash those tears away
Let the warmth soothe you as I hold you near
Cry as you must do as you desire
But the candle inside you burns ever bright
And your sobs are not enough to soak its fire
So don’t let your tears block out its light
See now you’re calmer not drenched in the rain
The flames of the fireplace so warm so dry
The clouds that hung over their water has waned
And you let out her sigh of relief
Remember her eyes never filled with tears
They could not wet her warm skin
Her exuberant smile stored the fire of life
And though life flooded its worries she did not…
She did not get flooded! The fire of life burned on
It burned the forest clear. It burned when I was near
That fire drowned. Not drowned! No sadness choked her.
Her light always guiding in life’s sea of darkness
That fire fought the suffocating sea.
It struggled against the sinking for you and her. And me
Fight. Fight harder! She cannot drown. That fire of life survive!
To those waves she should not be true
The sea is treacherous so fire fight on! Don’t suffocate.
Drowned. Not! Don’t sink. Go not to the sea
Fire survive. Burn for me. I must find you
That forest-burning fire breathes light
Light pass through the waves!
Allow me to see. To find.
Burn. Don’t drown.
For me. Fire
Drowned.
Come back!
Come back.
It’s ok dada, It’s ok
