Ascend

the memories i have of you
are sad but true
burdened by your reminiscence
i find myself fading away in my tears
my soul feels trapped
it needs to escape
in this ruse called life
i can’t find my truce
for i have forlorn the verve to go on
lost, torn and shattered are my dreams
yet i am not fearful
because i know that i will rise again
like a phoenix, to fly again
only to burn you with me!
