Puffers

The light flickers to life

The spark of something new

Nothing beats the first time

or the ones that leave you

The Rings appeared as Halos

And we acted like angels

While we danced like hedonists

           And the flames rised around us

I could feel it on my fingertips

like it wanted to stick 

Like I see it in my head

as I take another sip

You said so much

And only talked in facts

   a wordsmith born

                 while the days floated past

 just for today

 please don't come undone

  just til the sun sets...

but tomorrow never comes

I remember being mad

after you'd be fake with others

and now I'm just sad

          because you were fake here first

      And so it goes slowly

        Close off to stay comfy

          Get lost in the Office stories

                as ten seasons inhibit me

I wanted you more

than what was real

and when I stopped fighting you

that's when you disappeared

         Left only to myself

staying under the sheets

         watching the shadows change

                  As night comes from the east

Resist the urge

to pick you up

to see how you feel

let you fill me up 

A creature of earth

so simple and small

you've touched my life

I saw heaven and hell

I saw myself

I saw so much

   I saw my life

 I watched it's death
