Ashes

ashes to ashes
flames to dust
dreams to a whisper
friendship to lust

so near so far
so everywhere
so lost so found
so extremely rare

you have never belonged to me
and yet I claim you to be mine
camera obscura in a monochrome world
hand in hand with the Angel Divine

silly rhymes and empty words
with spaces in between
how I wish for things to change
for miracles unseen

from lust to friendship
from whispers to screams
from dust to flames
resurrecting my dreams
