Shades Ablaze

Brake free from the clench
This diminishing glow
Hovering over
Ruins and bones

Cracked open
Illuminated within
…born into the broken
The last gasp of night

Ash on my hands…
You’ve failed to reach me
I repel you
With gene-deep certainty

Cracked open
Illuminated within
…born into the broken
The last gasp of night
