Light

You always 
strike us
slightly unintentionally
then you fade away
leaving traces 
memories
- of sparkling eyes
- of shining faces
among unfinished lives
a glimpse 
of happiness
- in a click.


One day
I'll to catch you
inside a recycled jar
and forcefully 
squeeze out 
your blinding 
butterfly colors
burning and melting
inhumane hearts
into fashion 
accessories
- in a click.


With your blood
I'll lighten up 
the horizon
- no sparkle will ever fade
- no face will ever darken
and as you choke 
on your last breath
I'll squeeze out
the last color of life 
then retreat peacefully
into the abyss 
of my memory
freezing happiness
- in a click.
