Everything that I wanted,
Of loving and then
realising of how broken i am.
I sat quietly,
Watching her burn our house
Out of love,care and joy.
The fire formed like a smoky cloud
Above my head ,
flames and ashes on my skin
Yet curling up myself quietly
And watching her scream
Till she left the ground
And never looked back.
Until she disappeared behind the
racing cars, crowd and the sunset
I saw grieving on
My dead soul
Now all dusted with nothingness.
She went all at once,
But I never came back from that ground .
I sat quietly,
Watching our burning house.
