Silent besides the fire I sit
A lonesome soul burning inside
Bringing forth life to all that it covers
A storm brews somewhere far beyond
No one hears, no one sees, nobody around
In the emptiness that resides around me
As a thunder cracks, something snaps inside me
And I watch the empty pages of untold love burn away
Each leaf turning to ashes
And with each leaf I feel the pain afresh
Afresh from the memories
Wounding and scaling my heart once again
But as they turn to ashes, a new hope rises forth
Laboring a desire to write life anew
Narrating a bright new story like none told before
And I watch in silence, as the storm rages outside
Each leaf fade away.
