Burn The Ashes: Move on

Too many secrets.

Regrets.

Tasks undone, left to repent.

So burn the letters.

Tear out the pages.

Create space between chapters.

Breath a little.

In with the new and out with the old.

The pyres getting cold.

Throw some photo's and keep this fire alive.

Way more than our relationship...

One by one, don't let the whole album slip.

Your numbers, on the piece of paper that I only had when we met, let the countdown begin, one by one.

Let the fire rise.

Cyber texts? Should throw that in next.

Pour petroleum and burn these ashes.

To ashes.

No more material left, which is right, other than what's left inside.

The memories are, but sadly

Immortal.
