a warmth within.
even though it is raining outside
pouring
streaming down the windows
and pounding at the roof
there is a warmth inside
and it’s not a warmth from the furnace
not a warmth from the wool blanket
it’s something else
something inside my heart
inside my very being
a warmth that is hard to describe
as if the words available to me cannot hold
the feeling, the flame
this fire that stays with me always
scorching to the skies
and then just as quickly
fighting to keep the burning embers alive
but it has never gone out completely
it has never gone silent
a crackling whisper still remains
even if I can hardly feel the heat

The warmth within is an expression of who you are. Ranging from caring about something or someone to being completely devoted to something or someone. Whether it is a cause, a job, an art form, a person... that warmth within is the manifestation of the love and passion of Rachel.
