Ashes
Ashes to ashes
dust to dust
among the light.
The light you gave
once filled me
with immeasurable hope.
I placed my trust
into what I believed
was a sincere friend.
I believed in you
gave all into who
I believed was my family.
I wander the desert,
beaten and broken
in humiliation.
Ashes to ashes
dust to dust
among lonely nights.
The wilderness
now my home
without you.
