melt

by Indigo Tempesta

fire

in the sun

i was in the sun.

when i went outside it rained

rained hard

so i ran back in

and then

i went out of the warm

i stayed in the torrent

and my star melted

star melted

star melted

star melted

where's the warmth where's my warm where has gone my passion?

my sun has melted

and the fire is the rain

and i am whole

the whole is a shell

in the haze

i feel open

in the stifling

sharpness and the hail

to be back where i began

to be home.
