For anyone with
or without all our negativities
Never had I felt so happy, I swear, little light
Little did we know about sparkles when
we also lost our way
and my body started to bring us a thought of you
only now can I understand about the incident
only when you were flying over my roof and my head
every cloud became in a silver line.
Barely had we finished talking each other
when lights made a spectacular play with our words
No sooner had my home opened its door than it was destroy by you.
I wrote a note about you, it said: “Not only will you be for all the people
a bright stone, might be you won’t, but you will be one for me.”
You were my negative inversion, yesterday, or now and at nights
because all the time, little sparkle,
ocean’s voice, me, myself, I was an eye for you.
