Buataisí Beaga

The fire seems to catch me by the boots 
And throw me upside down
I catch my breath
And then I drown
In the ocean of what we are
Cosmically, a star
Fluttering somewhere on the edge of what we know
I hold on because letting go
Isn’t an option now
I see you somehow
Through the smoke and fog
I throw another log
On the burning hearth
It keeps me warm when it gets dark
And you share this strength with me
As we fight, wilfully
Abandon all life thought to know
About twin flames in the snow
Finally, to realise
We both share the same skies
