Stars, shinning bright above me.
How I long for you company.
We used to run in the fields of blue.
Always together,me and you.
The Earth was our playground,
the Sun our ocean.
You would fly me around until your wings were broken.
Then, I. Woke. Up.

We never realize
how much someone
means to us
until we meet them after we've lost them.
That's how it is,
and that's how it will always be.
We haven't met yet.
Not after what happened.
So here I stay.
Waiting, waiting, waiting.
Still stuck in July.
Listening to all our,
Bon Jovi sound tracks.
Sipping week old coffee,
and wondering.
What would have happened to us,
if things hadn't gone wrong.
In our little white cabin.
Calling for you.
Begging you to listen.
Day and night.
So tell me love,
can you hear me?

She shines, and glows.
I hide in her shadow.
She tells me,
"Don't be afraid. Shout out."
I can't.
She is my life line,
I hide in her shadow.
I am a mere accessory.

Have you ever seen,
a bird singing in the morning?
Have you ever seen,
a fox hiding in the woods?
Have you ever seen,
a monkey swinging  in the tree tops?
Have you ever seen,
a stream running through the dessert?
Have you ever seen,
a lion sleeping in the suns warm rays?
Have you ever seen,
a baby's first laugh?
Have you ever seen,
a man sleeping on the streets?
Have you ever seen,
a butterfly floating in the breeze?
Have you ever seen,
a mothers love?
Have you ever seen,
a love letter lost in the wind?
Then you, my friend,
have seen hope,
life,
loss,
despair,
happiness,
pain,
light,
hate,
and most importantly,
love.

I am stuck in this cage
Though my only crime is loving
I am trapped here.
Nothing but red as far as the eye can see
Now a flame of hate lives inside me
I just hope that it doesn’t turn into a bonfire
Here I stay
Forever waiting
Trapped in my little cage
I will do my best to stay in control
To stay away from the flame
The flame that will consume me

Color is a privilege.
Mine is gone.
The crayon were never crayons.
The unicorn **** was never unicorn ****.
The rainbow emoji was never a rainbow emoji.
The world is incomplete without color.

Fire    
I am a villain.
You can’t escape my touch.
I will burn you.
But I am your savior.
I keep you warm
Without me you would have died long ago.
I will gain your trust
I will help you
I am sitting patiently.
Always in waiting.
For someone to leave me burning.
So be wary.
Be careful
And always put out the fire.
