The Girl with the fire in her eyes

I am the girl 

with the fire in her eyes-

gasoline dreams 

tossing ashes into the ocean 

bubbling, boiling, brawling

tearing their way 

through the surface 

seven fever dreams- 

dawning at the stroke of 

midnight 

sending shockwaves 

through the city 

I know you saw me

bright-eyed 

glaring down the field 

wiping the tears 

from your face 

you were little then 

a kindling in your iris 

burning slowly

restless 

never 

ever 

ever 

dying
