Ardent Reawakened Memory
In shadows now lies a forsaken desire,
Because of an accidental, reawakened memory
That my heart mired,
Which makes me feel shaken at hopeful, dire moments.
I'll let some memories burn in a blazing pyre,
So that I might atone bad desires,
Because my heart roams in broken pieces...
I require amends and atonement
Before I catch fire
And watch myself ablaze as it increases.
So, may I conspire against this fiery barrage
As I aspire for soothing relief
Before another blaze gets inspired?
Now with reasons, I will remain decent,
For I will confidently seek release,
Even if grief tries to overwhelm me.
I will cling to the belief of a possibly brighter tomorrow,
Because I want to be free;
So I will plea for a new morrow to spring...
