ashes (song)

- yeah so i'm posting some songs i've written up here too. they are a bit different from my poetry. anyways, i've got music for this as well, but i'm still aways away from posting myself performing-

if ashes

can stay ashes

and dust

remain dust

i want to be

alive

if my thoughts

whispered

into

the night

they would scream

alive

if words

and wishes

could shape

our fates

i would sing

alive

if i could

lay here

with you

all day

i would dream

alive

if every

color

made me feel

this way

i would paint

alive

if patience

and virtue

burned a deep

blue flame

i would pray

alive

i've written all

your troubles

on a single

page

and burned it so you could be

alive

alive

i've stared here

for hours

and tried to remember

your face

hoping it would keep you

alive

alive

if ashes

can stay ashes

and dust

remain dust

i want to be

alive

alive

if ashes

can stay ashes

and dust

remain dust

i want to be

alive
