I
asked you to take off your sunglasses
Nervous
hands complied to my simple request
I smiled as you began
Turning from your window
Hand softly disturbing the lace curtains that covered
Distorted laden glass panes
That
Had to pass as
A cage to contain
A silent sapping rage
At what I no longer know
I smiled as you began
Turning from your window
Hand softly disturbing the lace curtains that covered
Distorted laden glass panes
That
Had to pass as
A cage to contain
A silent sapping rage
At what I no longer know
Your naked eyes dull spoke
What I refused to hear
The
game had gotten out of control
But
you noticed
What
you hadn’t noticed
When
Embers erupted into fire
When
Embers erupted into fire
You
laughed, the joy of a free woman
It
filled the sky with elation
You
danced, each step craving to push one step further
It surprised you
It surprised you
It
scared you
The
fire must be contained
So
Fierce in suffocating
Fierce in suffocating
Passions
pure fire
Dancing flames orange reduce to blue
Dancing flames orange reduce to blue
Then
Burning
embers red
That
refuse to die
Meanwhile
Meanwhile
You
keep your sunglasses on
