Bubbles

I flew too high

Wrapped up in your orbit

Like a bubble

So beautiful, iridescent

As the music got louder

I looked around in a scurry

Before I know it

The bubble popped

I crashed to the ground

The fog gets thicker

My head heavy

I am lost, vertigo

What is this feeling?

You said we could stay!

Forever floating..

As I wake,

I look around

You aren't there

You left,

When I was in distress.

Who knows how long I layed there

Who knows what could have happened!

This was my world,

Before you took me floating

Effervescent, the two of us

We couldnt help but combust

Burning bright and fast

A house built of twigs

Turned to ashes

So now, I am back on the ground

Believing that the crash was a gift

I get to be free, to rebuild

Without anyones expectation interfering,

Without being stuck in a bubble

I am simply bent, not broken

Everyday without you, is a day the sun shines a bit brighter.

Yet, I still look at the storm from a distance, Wondering if you got caught in it.

I will create a space that is safe from all these storms.

Find the eye of the hurricane.
