I was his light

But I sparked a downfall

I was the moonlight

Glimmering off the broken glass

Clutched

In his shaking hand

I was the light of the flame

Born from the small yellow lighter

That warmed the glass

Against his musical fingers

And the light

That melted the pixie dust down

In the form of hell

In a syringe

I was the light

Shining through leaves

On that fall day

And falling in a dappled pattern

Against her skeleton frame

And scarred skin

The light off that glass

Became red and blue sirens

The light from the flame

Made his eyes wide

And his life wild

The light through the leaves

Became the light

Shimmering off

Her broken tears

I am the light

Beckoning them forward

And holding them together
