Air is Fire

Just a short poem I wrote one day during math class, interpret it, I dare you :)


My throat is burning
Air feels like fire
My heart races
Loud in head
My thoughts run
So do my feet
On the solid ground
But I'm flying
Between every step
I soar
I feel like I'm playing with gravity

My legs don't hurt
Or burn
They aren't being stretched
My lungs are
They burn
From air made of fire
I gasp as I stop
My lungs and throat
The pain is too much
My legs and spirit
Want to fly again

My lungs win
I sit, I read
I let my spirit fly
In a safe way
A painless way
A way that makes
Air nothing
Unimportant

And I fly
With story plots
And amazing characters
My spirit soars along with theirs
And air isn't fire anymore​
