You know it really shocks me
But somehow doesn't
How oblivious you are
After all the heartbreak
You claim to have suffered
You wear your heart on your sleeve
Expecting nothing to happen
You babble about happy endings
But you don't realise that
Happy endings are stories that haven't finished yet

As we whirl around the darkened room
The dust swirls with us
Creating a cloud to protect us
From the flames and smoke
I grasp tighter to you
My fingers curling into your jacket
But you
Loosen your hold
Letting me drift out of the cloud
It's then I realise
My dear
We're slow dancing in a burning room

Listen to the wind screaming
And the air howling
The thunder rolling
Lightening illuminating the black skies
You will hear the storm
And remember me;
Think  
She wanted storms

Faster faster
The white wheels turning to ivory hooves
The murky grains changing to golden shores
Bleak grey turning azure
The entire picture
Evolving into something worth capturing
She releases the reins
Her arms  are spread wide
Eyes closed
Soaking up the feeling of lightness
Until she comes to the bump in the road
She soars through the air
Arms still spread wide
But eyes wide open
The hooves turn back to wheels
No longer ivory
Golden turning bronze
Azure disappearing
But this time black clouds come
Reflecting perfectly
Onto the transparent ripples
She forget that with light
Comes the shadow

She cried tears of black,
Weeping with lips scarlet
The pale foundations of her face,
Fading,
Into nothing
While the teardrops of ink
Created a new facade.
