Burn

I set it alight
that bridge that connects us;
I am tired and weary
of your giving and abuse,
I don't need you
you have no hold on me.

You are nothing.
I am nothing.
The world is vast
I will seek someplace someone
who'd look at me in regard.

Reborn like the Phoenix
from these ashes
soot becomes my ink
to create to soothe
and leave you behind.
