Warmth on his face Burning on his knees A gentle hand snaked around his waist A touch so mild it’s barely there Green eyes stare into the flames Remembering He wished he didn’t have to remember No one should have to remember flames Engulfing their home and possessions And their mother. Fireworks crack over head Blue eyes gaze at the colourful sparks He remembers too The day when the sky forgot to show them the stars And showed them his brothers and sisters falling Pulled close, they have each other Tender touches, sparse words Because they both remember But they’re both still here A human raised from hell An angel fallen from heaven Bent and a little crooked maybe But still whole Still family Still together

days of remembering
Warmth on his face Burning on his knees A gentle hand snaked around his waist A touch so mild it’s barely there Green eyes stare into the flames Remembering He wished he didn’t have to remember No one should have to remember flames Engulfing their home and possessions And their mother. Fireworks crack over head Blue eyes gaze at the colourful sparks He remembers too The day when the sky forgot to show them the stars And showed them his brothers and sisters falling Pulled close, they have each other Tender touches, sparse words Because they both remember But they’re both still here A human raised from hell An angel fallen from heaven Bent and a little crooked maybe But still whole Still family Still together
written for the final SPN writing challenge with the prompt of "Bonfire". A little angsty but whatever; have some feels.
