Ashes To Dust
ashes to dust
she blew me a kiss
it waited through the air
dead to the world
begrudgingly
and spiteful
... her kiss
it rode on a carpet of hate
lingering like on
it's last ride
with no interest at all
i see her
laughing
laughing
her eyes venomous
looking past me
like she always does
i see her kiss coming towards me
so phantom, pretentious
i see ashes and dust
i look back at her
my eyes water, blink
can it be?
for i escaped
... i see a mountain
erupting, it's top
spewing lava ...
ashes and dust
