confusion 
rumbles
and then silence 
and from that silence a glimmer of light 
or the deep darkness 

in these forgotten suburbs of the world
you only survive if someone at the bottom of the darkness, from the end of the light, looks away and smiles at you for a second 

a look that whispers to you I need you because you need me 
  until the end of our fragile and precarious forever 
so be it,
  so together we are
stronger than silence 
fireflies of life in the dark
