You set me alight from the inside
the fire warmed my bones.
and you eased yourself under my skin
you and happiness,
to hold me closer.

Oh the fragility of happiness.
Tall we stood arm in arm
I was impervious,unbreakable
fire burning under my paper thin skin.
you choked the flames, lost sight in black smoke.

happiness and I crumpled together like paper,
little dolls in the wind.
