Thrown into the flames
To be tested, now forgotten
By those who loved you
By those you loved
Forgive them, they're hopeless,
But don't take them back
'Cause they'll hurt you again,
Forget you again
And the flames will dance for you,
Leap for you, lick at you
And nothing can stop them
Nothing can stop
them from burning-
Help from beyond
Did you pass or did you fail?
Will you burn alive in Hell?
And will you be lost
Forever,
In nothing?

The Flower And The Gander
A being waiting for life
To come and open like flowers
Reveal their essence when approached
Yet closed
