All that Remains

Of Curses and Good-Byes

Glass, shattered shards

Dig into my skin,

Cuts both shallow

And deep

My injuries bleed

My translucent blood

Spills just like my tears

Invisible unless you look closely

Take my hands

Smear my clear blood

Look into my starry eyes

And watch as they dim

Be with me

As I take off

Fiery wings protruding

From my back

Don't close your eyes

Against the flame

Keep ahold of me

Burn yourself

Don't ignore

My diamond tears

As they collect, then fall

Shattered, on the ground

Don't pull away

When my skin, my life, my stories

Catch the flame and burn to dust

Dancing in the bitterly frozen air

Don't douse me

I want to burn

To be the color red

And I'm finally about to be there

So that I may now be gone

Never forget me

For I can now be happy

And don't you dare shed a tear

Thank you, for everything

For every tried solution

But as I have asked you

Once before

Say goodbye

For I shall say farewell to you

You're a blessing

And I am a curse

A curse that has been broken;

Freed

Good-bye
