*You're cupping embers
in antique palms
that were meant
to harvest moonlight.*
*Raindrops ghost over earth's skin
nebula clouds map universal eyes,
and you're just a masterpiece
who is best friends with time.*
*Don't let those pianos play you,
serenade and masquerade you
because we all seem to
fall in love with the right music,
and all the wrong notes.*
*That friend lit a fire in your room,
seven embers destroying
unfamiliar wallpaper.
You burnt your dream catcher,
to cinders and charcoal;
Now you pray for sunlight,
all you've got is a lonely candle's flame.*
*But from the nightmares and windowsill,
moonlight slipped through
and in your palms
you held
my words.*
Fire doesn't last forever, Leonie.
