Lead Me Home, Firefly.

Mood: Trapped.

Currently Listening To: I don't the name of the song or the artist. x.x




What...happened?

I open my eyes
to find myself in that same space.
The dark one.
I give a faint glow, but all around me.
I only see eyes.
Where are you?

I wanna go home.
Where there's a face I can see.
Who made is not okay?
Why is everyone so damp?
So dark?
So dreary?

And you hate me
Is it because I smile?
With the other fireflies in the dark night?
Don't get mad at me.
I'm not to blame.
How am I supposed to say hi if
I can't see you.

Did your light burn out?
No, maybe you just never had one.
You're not a firefly, you couldn't be one.
Fireflies can't love a roach.
Or a beetle.
Or a spider.
Or a moth.
They can only love other fireflies.
I cant help you.
You make my glow dull.
If this keeps up, I
won't help you.

Someone light up for me.
I'm a lost firefly.
Someone light up so I can see
and you can
lead me home, to my fireflies again.

And I'll be free with no worries.
But you.
You're not a firefly.
You can't come.
Even if you did, I wouldn't see you
would I?

The dark is just
Stupid.
I hate the fireflies who act like
their light went out.
They cry and beg
for another firefly to either be scared or
give them attention.
But they don't understand
that they are hurting us
and when we take notice
We just say
I can't see you.
And fly away again.

And that's how it is.
So one day, will my firefly
find me?
A lone firefly who just wants to get out of
the alley where
fireflies don't belong.

So come get me firefly.
I know your there, I have that faith.
And so I will wait with the roaches.
Beetles.
Spiders.
Moths.
For you, my little firefly
to come and glow so I can
see you.

And you, my little firefly
will take me
home.

Kinda like a poem? I dunno. ^__^ Anyways, this isn't really supposed to be a depressing or sad poem, but an abstract view of how i feel life is right now. I won't get into details, but to me it summerizes something like "Why are you all ALWAYS so emo. Would my dream partner come and lead me far away to a place where there's less emo people."

I mean, we all get depressed. Some of us can't help it. but for others. There is NO need to be that hopeless.

Halfway dedicated to Ita-kun, whom I will walk to the store where he works and burn it to the ground veeery soon. STOP MAKING ITA-KUN WORK SO LATE! scream heart CAN'T YOU SEE THAT THIS LITTLE OVEROBSESSIVE LOSER MISSES HIM?! That goes for Sara, too. I miss you guys. <3

;o;...That's a deep poem. T-T I really like it. Since it's about fireflies...And it's hard for me to understand what a poem means, but some parts told me that some people are outcasted. o.o And how people like to get attention by being sad. n.n

Mine are usually about fantasy stuff. o.o I did write a poem for my mom, though, since she really likes my poetry. n.n

xD Fireflies are so pretty when they glow and stuff. <3

Though I don't usually like poems, I really liked this poem.
And since I knew what it was all about, it really made sense.

Most poems you don't know what they're about, they seem kind of weird and confusing.
But since I knew, it kept my attention.
