Villain

I lit the fuse

I watch them fry 

Hoping that HE will show up tonight

HE will make things right

HE will try to catch me in flight

 

I lit the fuse 

I warm myself in the light

Hoping HE will answer my invite 

HE will start a fight

HE will certainly make my night

 

I lit the fuse 

I hear HIM come 

Hoping HE will oblige my insight 

HE brings with him justice 

HE brings with him light 

 

I lit the fuse

HE puts it out

I am his existence

HE is mine

 

I lit the fuse

HE puts it out

Hoping before HE leaves

He asks me

 

 

"Can we just do this over coffee next time?"
