Creating sandcastles
Made of desire
But the granules are starting
To melt in passions fire
The task was begun
In a place that would be
A trial for her hidden
For a while, she won't see
She watches the flames
As they engulf her work
She turns to her boyfriend
Is he actually a jerk?
In the wake of flames kisses
She gives him a chance
And she's rewarded at last
Because at her he'll glance
Who started the fire?
And how does it burn?
Well its just an example
Of how things can turn
She should have been wary
Right from the start
But he captured a feeling
And played at her heart
She thinks that he loves her
But it isnt true
He will tell her later
I couldn't love you
The danger is flickering
For now she's not sure
But one day she will know
And walk through the door
Of insight and wisdom
Self-preservation
The method of being
Her own self-creation
She won't be relying
On fantasy pure
She'll won't build flimsy castles
And only see through azure.
