last night the sky was on fire
and we could not help but stop
at the ending of the day
to watch the riot of colour
in the waves I found myself
lost and alone
you stood indifferent
which left me hollowed out
like a drum
tossed aside
you misunderstood everything
in your cowardice
and I was left speechless
by the sudden pain of it all
your fear tore
pieces of skin
ripped and shredded
heart bleeding upwards
to match the light
