Chapter 16 - Fireworks

An explosion of colors, a flash of light,

The twinkling of stars along with a firefly's flight,

Hues in the sky that's brighter than the night,

A rush of emotions that brought me to new heights.

A warm smokey fog, obscuring the night,

Forced happy tears fogging my sight,

Like a venom caused by a snake's bite,

My heart stopped at the thought of your sight.

Entangled fingers but not with mine,

Saline tears dropped as I sipped the last drops of wine,

You saw the colors not with me but in her eyes,

I screamed inside, my head filled with lies.

Sadness after happiness that's what the fireworks are,

Like us, my dear. An endless roller coaster ride.
