Sitting in the glass palace

When a lover crowns you

the empress of his

dreams, as the queen

of queens he has ever been

close to, think if you

would want to immortalise the moment.

You are not made of crystals,

you’re made of fire.

You’re not made to be

an establishment of someone else’s fancy,

you’re made to flow

as the shape of water steers

into a surface it lands on.

If you land in a glass palace

you’re destined to shatter

sitting inside it indicates your inactivity,

It is bound to crumble with

the storm named “you”

and your lover dare not be surprised,

you’re born to destroy -

anything that confines your

voice, that limits your willingness,

anything that makes you feel

like the ornament of a glass palace

without you building it.

Know which way it is headed

and know you’ve the power to act on it!

Think if you would

want to immortalise the moment.
