The Fire Burns

The fire burns
Turning bones to ashes
Tears turn to blood
That pools at the feet
Clouds hide the full moon
There will be no moonlight
Glinting off the steal
Tonight the world sees it
All through the eyes of me
The pain, misery and disgust
The screams are no longer silent.

Barely treading water
In this river of blood.
Turned upside down
It's a new life
One without a happy ending.
Came into this world alone going through it
And dying alone can anyone see
The world through
My eyes and survive it?
