Fire Catchers
Capture emotions
Like fireflies in a jar.
Catch times
Like a dream catcher.
If I could stop these times
And nestle a home in these feelings,
I’d live here forever
Feeding off salted almonds and music
Soon there’s a break
Will you grow away from me?
I know my worries are foolish
But i’d like to capture you
Like words in a poem,
I hope they’ll hold this moment still.
So I can live in it forever
And ignore life once we drift
Would you care if I did?
Be bitter that i’d ignore you,
Just ti write you on paper
So i’d have you even after I lost you.
