Ashes

Second glance, circumstance, Mental dance

through glass and tears

both sharp enough to cut through skin

and burn down into

souls

Ashes fly, bye-and-bye, People cry

through rain and fears

neither cold enough to express the hurt

or ease the pain inside

hearts

Whispers crash, pistol flash, Fates clash

through smoke and years

most confused enough to cause the end

or break the chains of

life.

Rest in Peace...
