Love's Ashes

Love's Ashes


Exploding in my head
Everlasting thoughts
Of you and me
Together

Torturing my very soul
Causing damage to my heart
Breaking all my oaths
And crushing my feelings

And my hopes of us
Of you and me
Together

Making me wish
Wish I was dead
Terrible thoughts
Running across my mind

Laughing at my spirit
Mocking my crying
Kicking me to the ground
And doing it again

Love’s Ashes
Falling slowly
Toward the black ground
Of my heart

My feeling for you exploded
Love’s atomic bomb
Killing everything for miles
And hurting all my times with you

The memories are painful now
Love’s Ashes falling slowly toward the black ground
Of my heart and yours

The memories of you and I
Smiling
Laughing
Talking
Are painful
And it hurts my soul
More than yours

Death took you
Leaving me
Alone

Love’s Ashes
Catapulting my civilized thinking
Replacing it with hurt
Despair and rage
But I’m never mad at you
Just at Death
