Ashes to ashes.
Why
can’t I be
ash?
How
I wish for
the sun
to fall asleep,
leave the world
in a complete darkness.
How
I wish to be
ash.
Pure ash.
Leave
everything behind,
let it all
become
darkness and
ash.
How
I wish to be
ash,
ash which
waits for the sun
to rise from the dead.
Ash
that sparkle with life
as a new day,
a new life
dawns.
How
I wish to be
ash.
Why can’t I be?
