Fire and Ashes

Fire and Ashes

Summer Breeze, wind in my hair.

I look past, the ashes and see you standing there.

I'd walk across the ashes but I know you'd run away.

I don't understand why you need to flee.

But the fire burns and consumes its path.

Can you feel the Heat?

I know you feel its wrath.

Now that you're gone I yearn to see your face

But dust and ashes are in its place.

Longing for a friendship, missing what what was there.

But all I see is ashes, I see it every where.

Fire burns and consumes its path.

Can you feel the heat?

I know you feel its wrath.

Footprints ahead of me.

Should I go or should I stay?

I hear them calling me.

saying they know the way.

I taste the ashes

I feel it on my skin.

A reminder of the fire that could soon begin

Fire burns and consumes its path.

Can you feel the heat?

I know you feel its wrath.

The footprints lead to you.

a light within my mind.

searching through the ashes

its you i need to find.

I am screaming for you

Is it me that you hear

or is the flames that you fear

because the fire burns and it consumes its path.

are you standing in it

do you feel its wrath
