A twinkle,
that beautifully dwindles
like a dazzling inferno
resembling gnawing words
that cuts through
like a blade,
and sends us crashing
into sputum of tears
shuddering in the corner
unable to spread our heart
again on a platter.


Unburnt
but life's seems
like the clouds
floating furiously home
we're but memories,
laying at the uttermost depth
of their heart
cast away like a burden
but here we are,
burdened by her sweet senile smile


We're toads without goals,
seeking solace on roads,
with endless mazes,
our lives are crumbling
while we keenly watch
unable to reach out,
and salvage anything
because we we're plucking flowers
while the tide was tearing
and now we're homeless for love.


Unburnt,
we're crashing papers
sweetly diving into flames
aware of our expiration
but we're awaiting,
like a flamingo,
on muddy floors
for that priceless kiss
until we're but soot and cinder
