When The Ash Can Melt My Fire

A day?

I wouldn't know–

How would I think;

Where would I go?


I wouldn't know

Who would've thought?

That this ash in a winterry May

Can melt my fire

Stash my ice;

Breath my desire

And roll my dice?

Who would've known–

When I didn't know that myself.


Where would I go;

When everything and everyone around me

Were all chasing after lust

And the desperation was real

I felt it kneed into my head

But I knew that the darkness was just another Aspirin

Aspirin that could slowly diminish your blood

The type of medicine that could make everything under your skin disappear

But what would I know?


I looked towards the shore

But all I saw was pitch black;

I looked towards, asking for more

But all I was given was its back..


I shared myself among my peers,

Young, fragile, and even small

I share myself, the person that I have been building on for years

But all that occured to me was how I'd fall.


I knew this was a danger– a rotten fruit

More like a mistake, a flaw

I felt more like a criminal than a mute

But your eyes were the last thing I saw.
