When did I begin to feel this fire inside me

Burning hotter by the second ready to explode

In a combustion of tears and fears and worries

And then I light in your eyes

And grin on your lips

And slowly the flame dies and dies

Because how could I feel anything

But joy when I hear your voice

Telling me I’m fine, that I’m gonna be okay

And you could never know of the

extinguisher inside you

So don’t you ever think your words are for nothing

Because they mean so much more

than you could ever know

Than I could ever say

For whatever you’ve done,

Thank you

 

Just a little thank you note to anyone who’s been support to anyone this year

Hi, I like Starbucks, my laptop and fantastical imagery. Other than that, I am in my 1B term of Health Studies at the University of Waterloo. Stick around to check out some of my poetry :)
