Wow! I could swear you were picking my brain! "In this fire that consumes the liar". In all honesty the only way one could know this is to live it; as hard as it is for me to mention. This is me and the closing line is them. A one in a million work of art.
Honesty at its best. Thanks so much for this write for it gave me such an insight on where I've been and where I may go in the future.

I have often been sinjged by that fire, lying to myself about "who am I".
