Everlasting Fire

Everlasting Fire

Once a grand and glorious showcase,
Filled with music, light, and fame,
Now a hollow, silent hall
A relic with no name

Inside the burned out opera house,
There is magic in the air
A ghostly voice sighs in the wind
Her spirit still lingers there.

Years ago, a promising actress
With her talent made her mark.
But all was lost, her life, her stage,
With just one careless spark.

At night, she recaptures her youth again,
She is young, she is talented and free.
And the theater no longer lost to time
Comes alive in her memory.

Still she haunts this junkyard,
Looking for glory at last.
Her specter in each room and door,
She whispers of her past.

There are those that claim to hear her.
They have seen her in the night,
Singing in the darkness,
Disappearing with the light.
