Crimson blood falling on Ashen memories
Setting ablaze my disdainful thoughts
Running away from the sound of my own blood sizzling on coals as dark as my heart
I run in vain
I realize that now
The smoke…
IT LINGERS IN MY CLOTHES
IT HAS SETTLED IN MY SKIN
IT HAS PERMEATED MY MIND
I RUN FOR NOTHING
I can only dream of the day… no…
I yearn for the day that someone will catch me
And wash these Ashen memories off of me with their Love
But that day will never come
Why would I dare force someone to tread through the hot coals for me?...
I will forever stay cold, dark, and unwanted
My heart… what’s left of the charred ashes at least
Can only lust
I will never know true love
I return to my Ashen graveyard
Warmed by the now black blood on the Crimson coals
