Though the destruction of myself transpired in between moments our electricity starting fires everywhere in town my heart held tightly within your grasp and the disasters we created within I would redo it all time and time again If it meant the ambering fire within me would electrify gazing into your golden speckled eyes And self destruct all over again

Though the destruction of myself transpired in between moments our electricity starting fires everywhere in town my heart held tightly within your grasp and the disasters we created within I would redo it all time and time again If it meant the ambering fire within me would electrify gazing into your golden speckled eyes And self destruct all over again

there you’ll find me under the lights shining so bright it’s almost blinding the wind howls with promise no one could predict the winds of change had begun to blow i stood there under the twinkly stars and thought i had found my forever with an eager heart and feeling of braveness i was ready to throw caution to the wind though they did not permit on this howling night heavy hearted i sullenly walked home another one got away now the city lights flickered and lost their fire sort of like us on this brisk dusk so i began to write and it started like this... there you’ll find me under the lights

on a cold brisk day following the agonization of my mind you asked me something quite unforgettable what brings you joy during your dark days? i believe my answer was you see its a mixed assortment of any flavor of adventure plane rides to tropical cities road trips to unacknowledged towns blasting classic 80’s jukebox tunes tears for fears / queen / violent femmes dancing in parking lots with my friends quaint and unknown coffee shops driving past state line after state line autumn blazes lighting up the view a warm cup of vanilla chamomile tea cozying up near a fire to unthaw my frosted nose my family’s classic movie marathons popcorn popping in the background while we soak in the glory of star wars / james bond / mission impossible oh the list goes on and on you know that all these beautiful distractions remind me of the grateful mind you should possess for the small blessings everywhere step out of the chaos of your mind appreciate everyday ordinariness affix yourself in the glory of the little things in life i overcame my dark days in the light of the plainness of everyday life plainness shines so brightly can you see it?
