Ashes

he moves through memories
striking hot white
in my veins


calculate
pinpoint
destroy

he’s no stranger
to the fire
he uses against me
my only air to breath
slowly he pours water
and slowly
my fire fades
and with it
so do i

lucky for me
he doesn’t know
just how hard it is
to kill a fire
that burns brighter
when it’s fed pain

I’ll still be here
waiting patiently
for the fire
to burn bright once more
and when it does
I’ll burn everything
leaving nothing
but ashes

  1. striking hot white in my veins…I love the word switch. not white hot but hot white. interesting structure. I get a feeling of angry patience.

    • Well that’s exactly what I was going for! Thank you for reading 🙂

  2. Cool dude cool. Nice word choice. Kinda confusing and understandable at the same time. I repeat. Cool dude cool.
