I knew it! I am psycic! Iol I found this poem to be parallel to Perry's song. And it's a good song to inspired by: it's empowering. I love both her song and your poem.

  "You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July 'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh, oh, oh
As you shoot across the sky Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh, oh, oh" That's what this poem reminded me of: "Firework" Katy Perry. I love the image you picture in this poem. Poignant!

People are entitled to their opinions, but I absolutely loved this poem! Although it's a short and simple haiku, you managed to capture endless quantities of emotion and feeling... Great!! (: The first metaphor is great, and I LOVE your "About Kris_10" section on your profile. Very clever. (:
