Part 1

Is love a spark or a burning flame?
Does light shine through the dark,
Or are they one in the same?
Can you harness fire, eternal, unconsuming?
Ingress illumination, but meets the dusk fuming.

Part 2

Begin
Rhythmic beating -- the lungs of the world
Blaze in
Blaze out
Memory is fleeting, but it will return
Remember
Forget
If life is fire, then death is smoke
Warmth, light, stinging eyes
Just a backdrop for a story
End
