There Is A Kerosene Girl
There is a kerosene girl,
spreading a kerosene trail.
She lives Her life with no knowledge
of what She could accomplish.
She lives life unsure
of what She could conquer.
There is a kerosene girl
oblivious to what she is doing.
She touches peoples lives
and leaves a handprint of kerosene.
She still feels worthless.
There once was a kerosene girl
who thought "I can't do this anymore."
She didn't know what she was doing
when she lit that match.
There once was a kerosene girl
who lit the match and didn't know the impact.
She burned.
Her foot prints.
Every hand that she held.
Every word she spoke.
Engulfed.
Every person she touched.
Burning.
There once was a kerosene girl who had no idea of her affect on the world.
