The ashes you left



Your train was derailed
I was the unboard passenger 
I had the every reason to leave
But I chose to stay anyway
You lit the fire in which I was burned in 
And I was all the ashes that were left 
You were a big highway accident 
I was the wreckage you left behind
You were the sunset 
And I was the darkness that followed
You were all the bridges I burned 
You were all the pages I turned
I was the smoke that rose above
Our love was like the lines of our favorite song that we find hard to remember 
I was a typewriter mistake ,
You could have written a fairytale but you chose to write a nightmare 
A blotch of ink on a perfect white 
You were all the poems I never finished 
You were all the places I never went to ,
You were all the photographs I never got framed 
You were all the thoughts I never thought ,
All the shooting stars ,I never wished upon
And all the raindrops I never felt
All the songs I never sang
And all the winds that never touched my hair
You were all the scars I had but never showed 
The only sea I drowned in ,
The only sea I died drowning in.
You were the only fire that burnt me and all the fire that made me fire again,
You were all the paintings I never made
You were my everything 
Perhaps you knew this.
But we are somehow nothing in the end.
It doesn’t even matter now .
Syllable by syllable I gained the courage to pick up the pen and fight with it 
The girl you thought was no more the girl you used to know 
No ,i never found myself again,never in the same place 
And the place I was lost in was alien
My knuckles are still bruised red
And I have put myself back into whole from pieces differently
Rather I am a better human 
To thank you 
Adamantly I say
The ashes you left ,are still burning ,so fear the day they will turn to fire
They will never burn you 
Neither they could ever turn things back .
