bask me in your sunlight and your merriment aglow
i am your bystander, still, watching as you go
where air is electricity and sparks are flames
you vomit dreams you wish I would know
so warm, you are comforting hearth, and scorching hellflames
you are a masked face, unknown identities, the player of games
you are kinetic, yet inert, when I feel as though I grow
you mesmerize, dear gemini, the heartache you forego.
