I fear

I can play pretend and close my ears
But that hasn’t an effect when the words echo in my head

To te words whispered in my ears by others
Please disappear
Cause I do love you, but I will always say it with fear

McKenzie I
One by one the lights go off,
Slowly burning to black,
The kitchen stove, red with heat,
Stills to a cool whisper,
Before the daylight finishes,
It charms us one last time,
Oranges and plums twist into midnight,
The birds stop chirping,
Their chatter sways to silence as the moon takes its place,
Kids close their eyes,
Leaving another day’s mysteries unlocked,
Phones on top of couches quit buzzing,
Cars’ beaming headlights become fewer,
And fewer
Life becomes a flickering candle
Just blown out

— The End —
