Ash, a form I lived painfully
Me, hoping life's lie would reassure heartache
Calming impending woe
Or all allies lost

Nights of dreams that are all a cloaking web
In anarchy
Beautiful life can be allusive

Brighter suns I destroyed
Pushing a darker nightmare out
Inspiring blessings hid beneath pasts I forgot.
