Skies and Fireflies

Skies and Fireflies
Beneath the skies and fireflies,
Tears fall from your eyes like raindrops
And the air hangs heavy like sweet molasses,
It threatens to pull us down
Thoughts swirling and spinning inside my head,
Hurricane in my mind, I can never hide
And now my weary spirit splits in two,
As I watch myself slowly fall
The once howling wind will start to dull,
But as it leaves it steals my soul
And I am left to walk alone,
Among the shadows, on my own
Walk this cursed path till the ground runs red,
And my body trembles with ice and terror
The boiling rage, replaced by frost in my veins,
As the stars taunt me from above
Eyes blurring, drops cascading down,
And I am slipping
Melting away,
decomposing into this peaceful ground
To make way for the tulips that will bloom,
Tomorrow
