I built a home/

Only to watch it burn/

I fed the flame/

To quicken the pace/

I got lost in the embers/

As my mind drew a blank/

Then I awake/

Surrounded by ash/

My mind floods with memory/

Of all the things I just erased/

Instant remorse for what I had done/

Yet regret sits lightly in my mind/

Somewhere deep within/

I wouldn’t change a thing/

A lesson I must somehow learn/

The time it took to build/

How quickly it all fades away/

A life full of effort/

Burned from existence/

Is it time to rebuild?/

Or has the moment passed/

Has life finally got the best of me/

Or given me a second chance/

As I lay my head to rest/

My eyes become heavy/

Tomorrow brings a new introduction/

Rebuild and Relearn/

Or will it only bring Destruction? |
