Ashes-Ashes




I am ashes ashes
A burnt out fire
Fury dissolved by waters of desire
Fragments frilled out of my bones
Chipped and shaped as liked to be known

I am ashes ashes 
A burnt out fire
Sunken by the promises of a liar
Settled down, my parchment heart
Veined out, dissembled and distort

I am ashes ashes
A burnt out fire
Waxing and waning, trying to acquire
Perfection, perception of a good human
Ways to restore my valour, my reflection
Mauled by soot of expectations

I am ashes ashes
A burnt out fire
Kindled still smoked out of pyre
Fumed and wasted, tired of trying
To spark a connection
Out of a fused out wiring

I am the remains, I am the cinder
I am ashes ashes
I am a burnt out fire
