(18/30) igneous.

you, like the northern lights,
only exist because you are trying
to protect someone else.

it’s not a bad thing, you are a
bucket list being for as many people
as i can count, but i know that

it burns, keeping the sun out,
letting the people who want to
use you safe, even if it means

wearing away at yourself like
rainwater on the bedrock
of yourself.
