Four Fires

tkatie118

I can feel four fires in my eyes,

Derive from the sky,

From which you fly,

And two in my babies’ cries

I can hear our song in the air,

Culminate in your voice,

Melodically choice,

You opened as I said “goodbye”

 

Haunted by feelings,

Words that we left unspoken

Secrets, deceiving

Am I okay? I wonder…

Tripped on believing,

Smiling at you, I’m thinking:

I can feel four fires in my eyes

 

I can taste our whole dream like light,

Stars in the sky,

Stars in your eyes,

And wine, into we’d often dive

I want to be like we were before,

Sun in the sky,

Smile in your eyes,

Dancing on the floor

 

Haunted by memories,

Of the past I thought I buried

But losing Lucy,

Cut through with the burden I carry

Secrets deceiving,

Tripped on belief life’s better

I can feel four fires in my eyes

 

Buried in sand to the neck of it,

Can’t control the way I’m feeling

Obsessively running after David,

I’ve got miles… I’ve got miles… I’ve got miles…

 

…Of deceiving

 

Haunted by memories,

Of the past I thought I buried

But losing Lucy,

Cut through with the burden I carry

Secrets deceiving,

Tripped on belief life’s better,

Abandoned my children

They’re smiling at me and thinking

They can feel four fires in their eyes

 

I can feel four fires in my eyes

    Most interesting choices made in word selection. Metaphorical and cryptic. Nice

    I get the sense of leaving a relationship then regretting that decision, we taking in the write through the deteriorating of their feelings and emotions, touching and sad, well in expressed
