Burning Flames

Burning Flames

Tiny flames against the evil tide

Only with each other at their side

Surrounded by bitterness and despair

Forcing themselves to step into the enemy's lair.

But always burning, never flickering

Betrayed, hunted

Their worlds slowly falling apart

Struggling to keep their sanity

As blood stained their once-innocent hearts

But always burning, never flickering

Never again could their dreams be fulfilled -

Their families destroyed

Their hopes shattered

Holding on to what was left of their tainted souls

But always burning, never flickering

The star still shone

piercing through the dark sky

Guided by its golden light…

Together they fight

Forever blazing…
