Messenger On Fire

Messenger on fire
Crying but aflame
What are you inspired with?
And what"s your final aim. Tell me
Why your eyes are glowing
With a yet unknown shine
Why are they riveted
On mine?
Messenger on fire
Is there any use?
In speeches so inspired, in their carrying
So much truth for men
Why are your seething words
Disquieting my sleep
Why do they sink in me
So deep?
Messenger on fire, please, tell me
Why your glowing word
Seeks to forge my tired heart
Into a pointed sword.
To find in me a hero
To light in me a flame
I’ve to tell you, hear me. I"ve
Been throught much the same
Messenger on fire
I’ve wandered in a quest
Crying with desire to be a
Model for the rest
Convincing my beloved
That there was justice in the fight
I thought were was no darkness
In the light
Messenger on fire
Take your sacred scroll
Gallop to your sire
Tell him straight that all I want is
Quiet for my people
When nothing can be done
To give them their moment
In the sun
Messenger on fire
Rent you scroll apart
Wild in desire
Humble in the heart
I didn’t want to be a novel
Where all would perish in the end
Not knowing that the vessel was
Unmanned
Messenger, I fear
Your effors were in vain
I promised to my dear not to
Cause or suffer pain. I promised
If there is a cause to fight
To nip it in the bud
I promised not to taint my faith with blood
