Poems
Mar 2019
Cinders
There're torn pages, fire licking, floating through the air,
Naught save ashes, paper, charred on the ground
There's no way to read them now
I admit, the first light, flame, flicker, wasn't easy
I was guarded and yet unburned,
But the second light, that one was easier,
And it seared my skin, as well as within me,
Carving out this hole, well it hurt
This temple once was magic, but I can't find it now,
For all I've searched
So I burned it to the ground
