Build a pyre

If i tried to light a light as bright as you
I'd probably have to build a pyre
I'd burn all my books down and
all the little coffee shop receipts I keep
inside all my bags.
I'd burn the bubblegum wrappers and the
bills inside my wallet.
I'd burn all the flyers people bring to our doorstep.
I'd burn all my dry plants and my clothes,
All the wooden boxes where I keep my necklaces.
I'd burn every flammable material I could find.
All in the pyre, no time to rest.
The smoke would rise and ruin the planet.
It would burn along the other houses and begin a forest fire,
killing everyone it touched.
The biggest pyre I could build
Still wouldn't light up
my life
like you do.
