The Ashes
March 29, 2018
Gone.
It's out of my control, but she's
Gone.
And now it feels like I can't go on.
But I don't want her to move on
To another world,
To leave me here,
Just another girl with a missing piece.
A missing link to the puzzle that is me.
A missing card that I need to solve this mystery.
To set me free.
Where is she?
In heaven or in hell, I don't know.
I'll never know unless I throw myself into the ashes
That she died in.
Unless I take away my pride
Until I'm flying.
Is she flying,
Or am I falling?
