Lighting the matches
Sneaky arson at midnight
Watching houses burn.
The loudest silence
No one talks, or even moves
What is happening?
Laying down in grass
Looking up at the sunshine
Pretty summer day
Sitting here with him
I like him, he doesn’t know,
But he wouldn’t care
Waiting for Friday
Watching the race in moonlight
Sprint cars come to town.
Man in a white van,
Waiting on innocent kids
To eat his candy.
He lights the fire.
It’s burning out of control,
Until it explodes.
Bright cherry blossoms
Sweet red in the summer day
Shining in sunlight
Pyromaniac.
She’s his crazy lab partner.
Match made in heaven.
Classic rock music,
Blaring out of the speakers,
Getting us pumped up.
Yellling and screaming,
I cry into my pillow.
Why does this happen?
Runaways, best friends
Escaping town together.
Living on the streets.
Quiet library,
Me and Nathan writing prose
Poetry buddies.
Colorful rainbow
Amid lightning and thunder.
Summer thunderstorm
Good country music,
David Nail and Taylor Swift,
Blowing out speakers.
Man at gas station.
He plays with lighters when bored.
Funny YouTube clips.
Singing by myself,
Unexpected soloist,
Off pitch but don’t care.
