The firefly, the glitter of summer nights, suspended in the air just for a moment, winking with promises and childhood wishes, leather-covered sparkles.
the garden
awaited,
a firefly
illuminated
the midnight sky
while i searched
for him under
rocks and pines.
you always run
and it scares me.
“i don’t want to play
anymore.” i yell.
nothing, just
unbearable silence
and singing toads.
i gasp and open
my eyes,
you lay
next to me
but a scar adorns
your right cheek.
did it happen?
The night was dark, without a moon. There were bushes on either side of the road and she walked quickly, her way lit only by the faint light of her cell phone. But then the battery died, and she suddenly felt she was in another world, lit by the eerie glow of the fireflies, slowly moving around in the bushes.
A firefly entered the room through my window. I am so scared. Is it gonna leave? Shall I kill it? Or maybe I should let it fly around and let it be. Anyways, they say fireflies are a good luck sign in some countries.
