Ember | 19 Years Old | California

I shall suffer greatly now

As the hand that embraces the ember of hope

Holds heavy my burden

But the ember sets ablaze

And what the fire has not disintegrated

My sacrifice will crush

Into dust

But only after the pain

Has been met equally

With my hollowed out heart

It is then that I will be set free

And I shall return to capture

The whisper from your lips
