Fragments cascade
Cringing, she shuts her eyes
Cowers behind a thin veil
Against the conflagration
Whimsical wishes
To be out under the starry skies
All ablaze and iridescent
There's no place to hide
A darting fugitive
A tiny spunky creature
All pity her, no one stops by
I wish I were at her side
My curtained window
Schisms and lace on fire
A beam decays, cannot stand high
At the crackling,she turns
I see her face
Teardrops streaming from her eyes
She doesnt speak, but pleads
Silently in the besieging blaze
I wake up
Jarred from a dream, I open my eyes
It is a peaceful night
Morning is yet distant
