Firefly

His eyes reminded me of the stars, 

so deep I swear I could see his heart. 

 

He was full of light, 

I was still trying to fight 

the battle going on in my soul. 

 

His voice a whisper of a lullaby, 

mine was spilling lies, 

but he was my ally. 

 

I guess I will have to say goodbye, 

because not every star I wish upon can enlighten me like a firefly.

  • Ink

    There is a different version of me that leaks out,

    dripping ink on these pages,

    hollow and raw,

    saying all my thoughts.

     

    A flow of words that may have never left my head,

  • Lenses

    We need more joy in this world, 

    we need less of this depressing sense of life, 

    when everything around us is so beautiful. 

     

    But we only look through a gray lens to see it. 

  • Rabbit hole

    I'm looking in the mirror,

    I don't match the picture on the screen,

    should I be sad or pleased?

     

    One click at a time,

    one more scroll,

    oops I fell down the rabbit hole.
