Birth
There is only flow when I go to the unknown.
I roam an abandoned home,
It looks like ancient Rome- all the frescoes and domes.
I call out; the echoes tell me I'm alone.
No phone service, I'm nervous.
I wander through these haunted halls
The size of a million shopping malls,
I begin to feel so very small.
A sudden flash- I'm dashed to the realm of vision,
A photons silent fission causes a collision in my eyes.
Chemicals climb my nerves like vines,
They activate my brain.
I gain the gift of sight,
I can finally see the light.
Technicolor sprites ignite from the night;
They surrond me and confound me.
Dizzy with the brightness,
Body dissolved to light.
I am one with a firework show
I am an ember, drifting to and fro
I am the spark, the flame, the afterglow

Hi readers!
I'm an aspiring writer and this is my debut work. Glad that my humble work has found its way from the musty pages of a diary to a place where it can be recognized. Hope everyone likes it
Love,
Parvathi (_scorpio)
