#firecracker
Live as if you were a firecracker
Which burns out too soon
Makes such an impression
Worth it
But the gunpowder is what makes the explosion worthwhile

The firecrackers exploded in the night sky,
light slipped through every twinkling star
dancing among those sparkling lights
as if the moon was not enough;
Every outburst tainted the darkness of the nightfall,
turned its tranquillity into mayhem
of aesthetics and beauty,
shifting the horizon into an abstract portrait.
Everything was perfect.
Everything was beautiful.
It would be a great year ahead indeed.

i feel like a tiger
pacing in a cage
it is not poetic
in the way that
if the bars were opened
i would burst out
like a firecracker
it is instead in the way that
i would lie down where i stood
unable to leave.

So I’m not your cup of tea?
I know, I know
I’m loud
I’m abrasive
I’m bold
I’m not ladylike
I’m too political
I’m too modern of a woman
I’m not maternal
I’m overly comfortable with sexuality
I make jokes like a man
I swear like a sailor
I don’t dab the grease off my pizza
I drink liquor from the bottle
I got some mouth on me, the audacity
I don’t filter my words
I fight when I’m right, or wrong
I push buttons and boundaries
I’m nothing short of a firecracker
So I’m not your cup of tea?
That’s okay
I’d much rather be someone’s shot of tequila, straight, no chaser

He took my hand
And my heart skipped a beat.
Skadoosh
My world implode,
Never to be the same.
Kaboom
Now that he's gone,
How do I recover?
Bang
He was my firecracker,
My short-fused flame.
