..~•burn
in the crucible of flames
transformation unfolds
faces veiled in soot
bodies stripped
oh behold
surrendering it all
in the settlings embrace
from ashes to petals
from void to grace
in the furnace of change
we all must yield
to rebuild
to heal
our fate being sealed
beneath the ash
new life beginning to stir
a garden blooming
radiant and pure
navigating volcanic storms
indulging lightnings dance
finally
a new dawn will emerge
a second chance
in the fires embrace
we must learn
that to rise new
we must first burn
