Ashes

Ashes Essay, Research Paper

My lips so tainted

In the blood they tasted.

Created in the mists of time

I stand naked in the moonlight,

Skin glistening in the moist morning air.

Once the king of dragons,

Usurper of a thousand nations.

A god amongst the mortals,

Now it all lies in ashes,

Wind blowing the dirt gently away.

The world changed,

As did I, the world I knew,

Is nought but a mirage

A fragment of my past,

Now I cower from the night.

I fear for the ashes may return,

And bring forth the final blow,

Ashes of crimson and blue,

Powers unmatched hide within them

Power to run my blood cold.

I join the beggars and the homeless,

Hiding from the ashes,

Hoping for a chance of forgiveness.

Can the god Yahweh be so cruel?

So merciless on those he loves?

Oh I wish to return to the ashes.

Became dead again, no longer feel the fear,

The wrath of god,

Has my god deserted me?

And left me in the ashes?
