SOMETIMES WE LOSE OUR SPARKLES

 


The sun used to burn so brightly in me that the sky becomes scared of those blinding beams,

I used to shine so brilliantly too with sparkles of the sun in me, sparkling orange flames in me.


We all have sparkles within us, sometimes hidden, sometimes open to the world to see,

You used to have it live in the depths of your soul now you've lost it to the tenacious storms at night.


Sometimes we lose our sparkles even when we don't want to, we lose them to the dungeons,

The dungeons dazzling with darkness beyond our power, we are powerless around the gloom.


Sometimes we lose our sparkles, fiery with red flames, shimmering than the stares of the suns,

Let's take back our sparkles from the arms of the sun, let's make the sun envious of our sparkly sparkles.
