Drowning in Fire

Beautiful Eyes

Lunas Pov

I watched as she danced through the kitchen with a bowl of herbs. the room was filled with a mix of spices but the cinnamon stood out to me the most.

Her smile never disappeared as she sang the words to her favorite song

She waltzed barefoot through the kitchen moving like the leaves, as the autumn morning breeze rolled through

"Come dance with me" she reached her hand toward me

I lifted my body from the wooden stool and ran toward her

She placed the bowl on the countertop and opened her hand right in time

She caught me in her arms and spun me around

She smelt like the earth and sweet spices

Her warm body felt so magical almost as if we were sitting by the fireplace

I started to feel dizzy as she started spinning faster and faster

"Mommy" I squealed through my laughter causing her to slow down

"Girls I hate to be the one to spoil all the fun but Rosalinda just fell asleep and I'd hate to be the one to go get her if she starts crying again" a strong voice whispered at the doorway

I looked and saw my fathers blinding smile as he leaned at the doorway watching us

"But we were just getting to the best part of the song" my mother smiled and the room instantly felt brighter

"Well the show must go on" my father picked me up and spun towards mommy

He held me between their bodies as they swayed back and forth

I closed my eyes and listened as they hummed the same sweet melody

I always felt safe in their arms

I opened my eyes and stared out the window at the moon

My eyes widened as I realized how large and beautiful it was in the sky

The stars seemed to sway as my mother and father held with me in their arms

They moved from side to side

Soon they started to rotate around the room

I spun my head thinking I was maybe dizzy or feeling unwell

They started to spin faster and faster until they were nothing but blurry lines in the sky

I tried to open my mouth to call my mother but I couldn't say a word

it was like the words were stuck in my throat

The stars started to fall away from the moon into the sky

It looked like rain

They were falling from the sky

It wall all terrifying yet the most stunning thing I have ever seen

I noticed a star falling towards me

It got closer and closer

I pushed myself from my parent interrupting their beautiful melody

I landed on my bum

I got up and ran towards the window with my closing my eyes hoping that the stars and the moon would go back to normal
