Fireflies Fireflies

Avianna Xiong

Float into the inky sea

Ire of the people, and souls trying to flee.

Roaring booms of sinking ships

Eternity, only fireflies can’t see.

Float into the inky sky

Lies of world peace, losers drop like flies.

Ire of the new battle lights up the earth

Eternal peace has shattered into cries.

Slowly the world turns 360.

Float into the inky sea

Ire of the people, and souls trying to flee.

Roaring booms of sinking ships

Eternity, only fireflies can’t see.

Float into the inky sky

Lies of world peace, losers drop like flies.

Ire of the new battle lights up the earth

Eternal peace has shattered into cries.

Slowly the world turns 360.
