You offered me the
ashes of your love
for it was all
that was left of you.

I took it with open arms,
  and like the mythical
   Phoenix you rose
   from it.
   You were healed.
   You were renewed.
  
But, you set me
  ablaze in the depths
  of Underworld.
  You left me there.
  You left all
   that is left of me.
