~Firepoof~

It's hard
to believe
in yourself
when no one
else does

thing's were
all good
yesterday paint it
with a pen

stars are
exploding
but then
again were
fireproof
bathing in
a strange
glow
praying for
changing

I know
you're real
and they
need to
know that too

if you
move fast
enough you
might catch up

but you
know it
doesn't work
like that
trying to
make it
better
piece by
piece sun
is blinding

but nothing
can touch
me anymore
I won't
fill the
silences

come back
soon, always
the paved
gray road
is cuddled
by new green
like watery paint

rolling down
the open road
dappled sunlight
has proven
electric say
has broken
I can feel
the frequency
