ten thousand fireflies, i’m weird cause i hate goodbyes. i don’t like that song. but i like owl city. it reminds me of last summer, listening to him and hanging out. rainbow veins was our song. it reminds me of sitting in our fort and you singing the saltwater room and having that remind me how much i love you.

I once used to catch fireflys. I loved catching them and letting them go. Once the fireflys were out it was the official beginning of summer. Such a free time. No jobs. No homework. Just childhood and the late dusk. With my parents watching over my brother and I, we would jump in the air to catch them. We would want to keep them in a bottle but then I felt bad.

fireflies remind me of the owl city song. i have never actually seen a firefly in real life, but i think seeing one would be pretty magical.
sharona
there was nothing magical about them. the glow was a chemical reaction, its purpose to attract a mate. they were, as luddy called them, just beetles with light-up asses.
sarah
Light buzzing glass wearing tight rope walking buzzards. Keep flapping away on your butt string floss. I don’t care about your stupid problems firefly.

there is this popular song out right now called fireflies. The man who wrote it is an insomiac, kind of like how i feel tonight, considering it is 3 a.m and I need to be up by 8. Fireflies…
lia
I wish there were fireflies in Colorado… In Kansas we would see them flying around but the climate’s wrong here. When we were little we’d smoosh them and draw on our arms with the light up gushy stuff…
Katie
Sit outside in the cold dark night and wait for the fireflies to come. They send light into the sky, and beg you to be happy. Smile.
Whitney
There is a song about fireflies. I personally remember hitting them with baseball bats when I was younger just to see an explosion of light for a short period of time. It’s sad that I was killing something so beautiful, but the memories of joy I experienced is something I do not regret.
Erica Fanciullacci
I like fireflies. They remind me of a time when things were simple and sweet. I didn’t have worries or responsibilities.
Marciano
light up every night grave of the fireflies the movie anime is very depressing i hate watching it alone makes me think of ww2 so many people went through crap in that era he movie is about a guy and his sister who face those problems in that era the song by owl city sucks
hatmandoo
There are fireflies all over the place. It’s too dark to see much else, but I can see the fireflies. I remember trying to catch them as a little kid. I never really liked keeping them in jars. I just wanted to catch them in my hands and then let them go.
Andria Laney
I hate that song. So over played. And i believe that’s unfair because it’s so random and it just so happened to be a hit. It also saddens me to see such beautiful work become so hard and over used. That was some true artistry. I do care about today’s music, even though most of it honestly makes me either wanna puke or cry.
Rina Sires
fireflies flutter all through the night grasses like so much confetti. sparkly, shiny and random directions, they are magical creatures of the night. Peaceful summer nights. Warm and comfortable watching the display of lights.
Patricia LaRue
tiny little things flitter fluttering in the night like stars lost in a swirl of dark, finding their way while lighting your way.
najolica
the song fireflires is by owl city. i thin the guy could of possibly been on halucegens when he wrote this song as there are various metaphors and things in which are not possible. he is having trouble getting to sleep and the fireflies are helping him. they are lit in the rectum and help see in the dark.
britt
The subject of one of the most annoying songs of all time. Takes away from the sheer beauty. A flicker of light caught within a tiny body. That is what life is about. That flicker of light when everything else is asleep and dark. x
Kay Esse
It was a magical night and little Sally wanted it to last forever. She watched her father, the Mage, engage a family friend in a lively discussion on the relative usefulness of newts’ eyes while she sprawled out on the sweeping lawn. Fireflies twinkled above her little blonde head and her brother joked they were coming to honor his little witch-princess.
jackie
I have never even seen a firefly. I wonder if I ever will. What do they look like when they’re glowing? What do they look like when they aren’t? What is that song talking about…? Hmmm.
Holli
fireflies: all words are mine flowing through time i lost one thought, i lost my love
Sai
fireflies made me go back to the garden where they showed me how to escape. into the forest I ran without a way to retrace the lines of my finger strips. From then on the moon lifted my skirts and guided me to the moss nest. thank you to the trees and grass.

A really crappy lame song that has been overplayed on the radio. It basically is one of those songs that has destroyed what music truly is. It’s not entertaining and completely unoriginal. FUCK THAT SONG. Although, catching fireflies as a kid was pretty fucking awesome.
Matt Frankwitt
Fireflies remind me of that Owl City song. That’s all that I really think about now when I hear that word. I think there were a lot of stories with fireflies in them when I was a kid. I always wanted to catch a fireflie and keep it in a jar like they do on TV and in books sometimes. But we never lived somewhere that had fireflies, so I never got to.
amy
At first, i thought the pen failed me. “So much for your mightiness” i said as I flung it down.
Then I saw it cry. I saw how helpless it was.
“All I’ve ever wanted” it said, “was to show the world what a firefly was”
And I let him.
Jared O'Loughlin
Bright, orange… beautiful little creatures of flame. They inspire me- like candle light on a poweroutage night… Dancing, to in fro in the dark- creating their own light.
Mallory Smith
glowing home smells like nightime with lemonade and barefeet dancing i think they’re stars my dog eats them i smell like fireflies in my hair even today far from them
mackdot
there is a song about fireflies that i do not like. the first time i ever saw fireflies was in new jersey, they are awesome. i don’t know how they work, i would like to know.
auder
The fireflies danced in the moonlight. Teh trees were swaying in the breeze with a warm essence. He looked at me and said, “We don’t have too many more nights like this left.” I knew it was true, but I just couldn’t admit it.
meghan
Fireflies are fun to catch in the summer. I once wrote a recipe for a starry night or something that involved fireflies. They are amazing. I liked the one in The Frog Princess.
Barefoot
fireflies come out on warm summer nights to paint the trees with their fluorescent warmth.
travis
you would not believe your eyes.. if 10,000 fireflies.. lit up the sky as you fell asleep…

Firefly in the air; have you gone everywhere? Or are you here, in the now; hear and near, as well as dear? Firefly in my sight; I love you for the night. Fin.

Dancing in the night sky, like stars. They’re nature’s fireworks… and the show is just for me.
Joy
blinking, winking, the man in the moon sends his offspring.
lanterns, flashlights.
we waved our fireflies in front of our faces,
dreaming of the places we’d discover.

Dance around like lightning. Kiss the night sky with their wings. The most beautiful things just have sun shining out their ass.
Kristen Carranza
I hate that song fireflies, actually I dont. Im not sure why I lied. everyones says they hate it, I guess that makes me a follower. My mother would be so disappointed. She raised me to be better than that.
Neuratic much?
Alyx
bright light magnificently radiating from their essence rains down upon the earth.
in our greatest moments, we can only hope to achieve what they accomplish by just breathing.
to glow.
magnificently.
wonderfully.
the light of god.

You know, there is something about fireflies that makes me feel comfort. Perhaps it is because at the darkest of hours, a tiny insect and illuminate a portion of the night sky. It does not stand still, no, it buzzes around for the eye. It wanders together in an adventure unlike any other.
