Our Carnival

The carousel ride never ends.

We spin with the Gravitron,

Spilling glitter on our intents.

And they call us graceless,

They stomp on the lights.

The kaleidoscope covers us

As hungry fire ignites.

Once the sparklers cover the sky,

I hold your hand tightly,

Knowing this is the very last time

These memories will find me…

But our carnival never ends,

Even if it kills us nightly.
