"The Tea is Ready!"

she sings a gentle lullaby
wearing a pastel dress,
like honey in hot chai
she dissolves your stress.

she put the strangers first,
ignored the stove's heat,
her own burns and feelings
had to take the backseat

but her worries were a mess
her lungs filled with steam
smelling of nectar and distress
as she began to scream
