Our memories rest
Oh, fairytales of lies
From our history
I burn down the pages
Of your face and words sketched on paper
My tears already corroded

The bridges we once built
Now laying as stones to the ground
Broken, ruined, lost
Pathways to a new world
To the promising land
That we will never reach

The bound once shared
You dragged through the dirt
Feelings and words
Forgot under dust
No longer matter
No longer hurt

Watch me bury
This past
Without a blink
Without a glance back
Lock down these ashes
So they can never be revived

Watch me fade away
From your sight
Spread my wings
And turn my back
Oh, watch me leave you…
Behind
