         <description><![CDATA[<p>The title of the song "Firework" is a metaphor for how the author encourages us to be: like a firework. The author wants us to shine bright and "ignite the light" inside of us. She wants us not to be afraid but to be bold and step into our unique spotlight.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>If you think about it in depth, the word "Firework" creates imagery in the reader's mind. Fireworks spark and create beautiful unique colors implying that we are uniquely beautiful. </p><p>Imagery is also used to describe the feeling of being broken down and defeated. "Do you ever feel, feel so paperthin</p><p>Like a house of cards, one blow from cavin' in?" This line also uses a simile. </p><p><br></p>]]></description>
