Array ( [sid] => 141633 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Angels of Fire [time] => 2008-04-16 21:18:33 [hometext] => I stopped writing for a long time and this is the first thing I wrote when I got back into it recently. Quite simply it's about taking chances. It's not flowery, it just is; much like life. [bodytext] => Opportunities are Angels of Fire
With wings ablaze they come
Streaking towards us at the speed of life
Grab them, you might get burned
Miss them, you’ll never know
Angles of Fire that bring life or death
Those truly alive risk the burns
The rest wait and let the fire fade
The brilliant fire of life
The coldness of existence
Do you stretch out your hands
Or are you just standing there

Angels of Fire

Opportunities are Angels of Fire
With wings ablaze they come
Streaking towards us at the speed of life
Grab them, you might get burned
Miss them, you’ll never know
Angles of Fire that bring life or death
Those truly alive risk the burns
The rest wait and let the fire fade
The brilliant fire of life
The coldness of existence
Do you stretch out your hands
Or are you just standing there
Waiting
