But until the sun burns us to dust
We dive into oceans of old
We swim under skies of centuries
Until our home galaxy becomes maelstrom and maker
We light candles and watch fireflies dance
We breathe another day. And burn on

we are still here

I beg you to believe me when I say that a firefly will never hurt you on accident. They’re gentle and kind and their light guides your way. But if you anger them, and it is hard and dangerous and never recommended to do so, then their wrath will be filled with godlike intent of destruction. Their light may guide the respectful man’s way, but it also leads the firefly’s unholy revenge straight to your throat, should you be foolish enough to provoke them.
