Fire

The more you hide
The more you need to hide
What you hide.
The more you lie,
The more you need to lie
To cover the lies.

If its all a game,
I'll show you how to play
Without bending the rules,
Without being an escapist
Or a liar.

Play if you must
But don't burn your hands
The coldest of waters
That never stirred
Might just turn ugly
And into a raging fire.

Hi Shruti,

Simple and humble lines, well crafted, thanks for sharing, my applause, my vote, my love, I like the below lines:

Play if you must
But don't burn your hands
The coldest of waters
That never stirred
Might just turn ugly
And into a raging fire.
