    While I did enjoy reading the poem, I found some of it pretty obvious:

    Since you say the flame is unique there is no need to say in the next line how it's like no other before.

    You say reignite the flame as in commanding it but then later on that sunlight and time healing is what reignites the flame.

    Your descriptions were good though, and I liked the format instead of straight across lines. It gave it something nice.

    Amazing write. It was a very unique idea, and the imagery that you used was great. I loved the second stanza the best...
    The rain dries
    Time heals
    And the fire ignites
    Especially that part, it really stood out to me. You did a great job on this! 5/5

    I can see a real shift in style from your older pieces to this one. It's refreshing to see and your diction is interestingly different whilst not feeling pretentious which really adds weight.

    Again I think that your work can benefit from the addition of punctuation. In itself punctuation can add another dimension to a piece, making a sentence flow more evenly or allowing the reader to pause, if only for a second to process what has just been read.

    Try adding punctuation to a one of your existing poems and see how it compares side by side (I'd suggest printing them out and asking a friend's opinion). You'll see that it can add emotion and pace (both fast and slow) to a work and make it feel more complete.
