Ashes

Made a big mistake
Wish to take it back
My life's like a train
Running out of track

Want to erase and rewrite
Don't want to take blame
Escaping is a worse condition
I wish this could be a game

Turned invisible
To your eyes
Dying slowly inside
Forced to tell lies

Misery I bring to myself
Watching you each day
Feeling scornful of self
Waiting on lost hope?

For someone, someday
For a time it wouldn't hurt
For when sweet love turns bitter
Like glowing embers turned to ashes

And then there's nothing left...
Just ashes.
