Once there was a little firefly
Who was lost in a dark cave
It was never the places she intended to reside or hide
But she would get out! She was strong and brave!

Once there also was a sky
Who had once shown blue
Vibrant blue; above the world, strong and high
But it all went black with night, the wrong thing to do

The firefly longed for summer days
Bright and glorious as they shone
And the lovely nights where she could light her way
And she sought and sought for a source of light that wasn’t her own

She needed just a sliver
A faint hope was more than enough
This darkness was not her home; she needed a dark of pure, and life giver
She was not, and would not break though, she was tough enough

The sky in turn felt lost
Not what he was meant or supposed to be
He felt out of place and knew that the right path he had not crossed
The dark he, was not the light he wished to see

But a faint glimmer far away
The one thing he needed to change
He wandered towards the light, and began to wish to stay
His eternal dress of blue he would gladly arrange

And the Firefly saw her hope
And fought her way out of the cave
They were drawn together; a bond, a rope
And the best of each, to the other happily gave

The Firefly played and enjoyed the sky of day
And at night she played and sang for her sky
They shone brightly for one another
And it was a beauty that would never die.
Just a short love story.
