The Fire
Embracing Life's Flames: Akissforjersey's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
From the top of my tree
Expressing a high vantage point or perspective.
I thought I could see you
Anticipation of seeing someone.
From each brance as I
Observing from various angles or aspects.
Worked my way around
Moving around systematically.
Leaving darling I'm here
Announcing presence, possibly leaving a mark.
Carved in each I passed
Leaving a personal mark at each location.
Hoping you would admire
Hoping for appreciation or recognition.
My attempt to outlast
Effort to endure challenges, symbolized by rain.
The beating rain like a
Comparing rain to a sheet on a clothesline.
Sheet on the line
Suggesting vulnerability to external elements.
A fire's coming
Forewarning of an impending challenge or crisis.
And it's coming for
Stating that the challenge is imminent.
You soon my son
Addressing a male figure, possibly a son.
Tell me will
Asking about readiness for the upcoming challenge.
You be ready?
Repeating the readiness question.
Is my question
Confirmation of asking a question.
To you my love
Addressing someone affectionately.
And I've grown
Adapting to unfamiliar or challenging circumstances.
Accustom to things that
Acknowledging the inability to comprehend certain things.
I will never understand
Reflecting on the acceptance of mysteries.
Maybe when I die I can
Speculating about understanding mysteries after death.
Come down and put Your
Invoking the idea of divine presence or guidance.
Hand on my shoulder
Seeking comfort or support in challenging times.
My heart feels so young
Expressing a youthful spirit despite physical aging.
But my bodies getting older
Noting the contrast between emotional and physical states.
God I'm standing here
Addressing a higher power with openness.
With an open heart
Emphasizing vulnerability and sincerity.
A fire's coming
Reiteration of the impending challenge or crisis.
And it's coming for
Confirming the approaching nature of the challenge.
You soon my son
Repeating the addressing of a male figure.
Tell me will
Repeating the question about readiness.
You be ready?
Reiteration of the readiness inquiry.
Is my question
Confirmation of posing a question.
To you my love
Endearment expressed toward someone.
