electric

want to light it now

give it one more day

you told me that even sugar

melts in the rain

and it's just another

moonlight mile

down the road

when the sky is painted

in electric paint

colors are icy

sugar swirls

first

comes stress

then comes worry

to haunt me

close your eyes

the air

is alive

and the sky

is burning

and liquid

with all

the hidden colors

in the world

everything

is shimmering

running

into shadows

and corners

to no avail

time

to break

the chain

Make the most

of your

minutes
escape
the soft
lonliness
