Firework


  • Proclaiming your beauty 
  • Radiant in the sky 
  • Committing murder for everyone to see
  • Killing depression without an alibi 
  • Starting on the ground
  • Nothing more than a cylinder 
  • But with explosion you have found 
  • There is more to reveal here
  • A supernova blooming
  • In an otherwise vacant face
  • The darkness looming
  • Edges to trace 
  • You are living art
  • With a short existence 
  • Gone before you can start
  • You have but one chance
  • The ability to leave
  • Behind a memory
  • Trapped in the neuron weave
  • But precious to me
  • Oh firework, light above
  • You are gone too soon
  • Is this love?
  • Or another chance to ruin
