There are types of wildflowers that can only grow after fire
Only after flame has scorched the landscape can their seeds take root
They lay dormant in the soil, ignited by the rage above
Stealing energy and heat
Waiting for the flames to abate
And then they burst through in blinding color
We were wildflowers and fire, you and I
Even though you tried to burn me down
I bloomed
I bloomed
