Rise


Fires left burning. Lapping up everything.
Too many things, just gone.
I am unforgivable.

Charred shadows follow, haunting me wherever I go.
Catching me when I try to run.
Destroying, when I try to build again.
Drowning me in ashes when I try to bury them.
Again, and again.

I may be a darker shade of grey
but I never wanted to be this.
What I have been.
The destroyer.

How long will these ghosts possess me,
my thoughts, my life
Maybe its time to exorcise.
To rise.

To make my way out of the ashes I created.
Dust them off.
Unchain the shadows tied to me
 And let myself  live again.
