Grace of The Fireflies tribute

By Melissa IngoldsbyPublished 3 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

stones fit in candy tin,

Smile thin,

I fire up your water,

Air soup.

Author note: The Grave of The Fireflies is a film that haunts me. I’m sobbing still reliving it, as though it is apart of me and my memory. Please watch it.
