touch my arm as a passerby,
shooting stars in the midnight sky.
your laugh contagious, your smile shines.
the sun reflects in your eyes,
you're warming the world from within.
*
buried deep underground,
I see no light, I hear no sound.
inside a box, inside the earth,
unable to move I feel your hearth.
the fire mellows, I kick and scream
no sound comes out, somethings wrong with me.
my voice now gone, I now cannot tell
I want your warmth, but cannot break this shell.
*
my mind is caught in a web of dark,
a purple void of hurt and heart.
was one touch enough for you to look?
was your world as mine was shook?
if you are able to find my box,
would you dare to pick the lock?
