Tonight, let's watch our world burn
Holding the flame in my hand
Open, spilt, and empty
Ubiquitous across the land
Gave it all up and away
Holding onto everything you ever said
Alas, it all fell through my fingers
Though attached, I lost my head
Tomorrow, let's scatter the ashes
And leave them in the past
Cast the sentiment away
Holding onto the dreams we amassed
Endeavor to let them go
Dust to dust, they fade
I'll cling to the remnants
Losing most everything we made
Open, spilt, and empty
Shifting through the remains
Though found, I lost my way
My memory wanes
Yesterday we built it all
Held it in our hand
Endeavor now to let it go
Alas, watch it all disband
Dust to dust, it returns to the land
Holding the flame in my hand
Open, spilt, and empty
Ubiquitous across the land
Gave it all up and away
Holding onto everything you ever said
Alas, it all fell through my fingers
Though attached, I lost my head
Tomorrow, let's scatter the ashes
And leave them in the past
Cast the sentiment away
Holding onto the dreams we amassed
Endeavor to let them go
Dust to dust, they fade
I'll cling to the remnants
Losing most everything we made
Open, spilt, and empty
Shifting through the remains
Though found, I lost my way
My memory wanes
Yesterday we built it all
Held it in our hand
Endeavor now to let it go
Alas, watch it all disband
Dust to dust, it returns to the land
Your poetry is so good but it always makes me feel so sad. Are you going through like a tough time or something. Do you need someone to talk to?
