Hands, beginning pleasure
Let our fingers intertwine
Bodies pressed together
Sets the mood, now quite sublime
Momentum grows, much quicker
Sparks are flying, never shy
With bodies, ever slicker
Swells of rapture, quietly sigh

Like fireworks, we ignite the skies
With hopes and dreams, and how’s and why’s
As radiant lights, we guide our hearts
Through thoughts and words, we must impart
Scattering about, with a certain flair
Watching, waiting, not knowing where
Eventually falling, back to the ground
Messages sent, are quite profound
With a thundering boom, we get your attention
Oh, the OOHs and AAHs, did I forget to mention?
That fireworks are a lot like you and I
Trying hard not to fizzle, when they die
June Writing Prompt – And then we all fizzled – Day 10/30

Life offers no comfort, to the ones who came back lost
Those whose minds, were taken, but really, at what cost
Trying to find the place, where last they knew their names
In a country that misunderstands, and never takes the blame
Locked inside, their restless souls, unable to assimilate
Homeless, lying in the street, oblivious to their fate
The drug of choice, so many, as they try to ease the pain
I pray to God, that someday, they’ll come back home, again
Smiling, gladly welcomed, by those they left behind
No longer in that empty space, that lingers, in their mind

I want to
Disappear
Blend in
With the drops of rain
Landing
Upon a flower’s petal
Slowly
Making my way
Down the stem,
Into the ground
Traveling
Under the earth
Finding
My way
Into the river
Flowing
Into the ocean
Disappearing
In the waves
