From the Ashes

From the ashes All my words are bulletproof; Shout at me and your words I will use. Everything I took from you, Left me feeling battered and bruised. Things are always meaningless, Unless you take them to your chest. Then they become more than less; Letters become sentences. Power comes from inside your mind; Thoughts are gold and these thoughts are mine. I would change the world if I could find the time, But wishes explode and the remains rise up into the sky. Lightning never strikes here twice, So build a home after a lightning strike. From the air into the ground; My whole world comes crashing down. Pick my life up with a dust pan and brush; I am broken – I am trust. I could never give a fudge, To anyone that I didn’t love. (C)2016 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
