The Fire

I have long lost any hunger
And fell into a deep slumber
Staring into the final ember
Of the faint dance of fire
I have long lost any feeling
And struggled to find a meaning
The entire world to me seeming
To have given up all desire
I have long lost any friend
And wandered lonely to no end
By the river’s dimm’d bend
Hoping to spark an ire
I have long forgotten what I had
And thought myself to be mad
Until a soul of golden clad
Appear’d as a flaming pyre
I have long since woe’d
And to God’s name I call’d
But with silence He replied
Was it her or just the fire?
