Ashes in my soul

Ashes in my soul

Demons all around

How can I find me now?

My self has gone to ground

I don’t want what they offer

But it would ease my pain

Why do I seek ending

Over and over again?

So, choices to be pondered

And decisions to be made

And loves and lives to reckon

Before I pull a fade

I promised to reach out

I promised not to go

But it’s a promise I can’t keep

For there are ashes in my soul
