A

And she is so pretty

In all of her twisted ways

Shining light on the black pavement

But draining it from her own eyes

And she is so loud in her silence

That it seems too far away

For her to slip from our fingers

And some people are so wonderful

That all they do is bring wonderful things

And some people are so special

That all they do is make the world feel whole

She has ten thousand loves scattered around like ashes after a wildfire

When the trees burn, she watches

When they become dismantled

She aches

She is the leaves in the blazing wood

But never deserved the scorch

She brings oxygen to everyone in her wake

But the forest fire lingers on

Moving slowly, throughout the seasons
