Poem (untitled) by K. Y.

The palm tree is on fire


What shall I do


With a world that is bright and new


A new darkness that makes me shiver


A new world that makes the world a bit brighter


A new leprechaun that finds the pot of gold


A new rainbow at the end of the road


So the palm tree might be on fire


and so may your heart be too


but as the time passes by


to the light


Your world is all yours


The palm tree is on fire


the palm tree is on fire


no wonder why I didn't see the smoke


that rose the smoke


that rose


I guess I was blinded by the world I saw


A bleeding heart I am


With the glow of passion


I sought out the world of nothing


The times I’ve tried to take it back


it sends my spiraling down a path


down to my town


and a look around


I saw the things I wanted to see


a world full of life and the things I will be


but is it the things I want to be?
