The Embers

   

   

“The Embers”

 

The embers are fading,

I live in the dark.

As far as I have tried.

I cannot find the spark.

 

Ashes and ashes,

Are always the same.

Drawing circles in ashes,

Is that all that remains?

 

Shoved and pushed,

Forced down to the ground.

Cry out, cry out.

No one to hear the sound.

 

The embers have faded,

I live in the dark.

I have tried and tried,

But there is no spark.
