so, I really wanted to post this video, and I figure I'm just using this poem as an excuse to do it. I wrote this about a special friend who helped me find my way again, before I lost it again recently. But yeah, I think it is pretty good going with this, and yes, I think CGI videos of flaming dragons totally kick ass.




When first we met, we talked of storms,
And fire, the fire within,
How mine was gone, and puttered out,
Leaving my heart cold and dead;
We also talked of how a storm,
Can light the fire, kindle it inside,
But you told me you weren’t my storm,
But you also taught me to try again,
And fight again, to love myself and others once again,
Once again, because you were my friend,
And you weren’t afraid to love me,
Just for whom I am inside,
This innocent affection lit a spark,
And fun and smiles and laughter made it flame,
It burned brighter in me every day, and lifted me from the gloom;
The god in your smile made me see the god in me, reflected in your eyes,
You reminded me how to enjoy my life and reach for my goals,
Your ambition woke a kindred spirit locked deep inside within a frozen prison,
Made me resolve to follow after dreams,
Dreams that I had given up for dead,
You changed my life for good in many ways,
In the end you were wrong, my friend, you always were my storm,
And now I’m burning bright again.
