I am yet but a swift autumn's wind,
the leaves kick up with one run.
vines surround the corners of the world.

fear not!
for I have a metal star between my fingers.
it's cold and stings with anticipation,
freezing my body with a bang.
Bang, the vines slash and fall.

these bright lights blind me,
was my side profile alright?

i ask myself these questions
because i am nothing but a successor.

my mom applauds,
praising me.
my eyes gleam.

but a churn in the pit of my stomach
sends me to my grave.

i no longer live that dear life.
for i have found a more beautiful light.
