Broken home



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.
