Up In Flames ~ I found traces of you today burned them all away long into days end through the softest night I…vigorous in the light the reflection of the flames in my eyes daunting all attempting to touch my sky follow the thread in and threw at long last I am rid of you… though you never meant harm I smile not at your charm… [bitter, jaded so complicated] a place I once knew destroyed by you a journey not of my choosing ruinous fire at my feet leaving me complete once felt as defeat it was only me I had to conquer . ~ Rain © cls 2003 |
