Ashes
How could you let this happen?
Honestly, how is it possible to screw something up so drastically
I always thought i wasn't a very creative person. But i was completely wrong.
I just failed to acknowledge it.
The fact that who I thought you all to be, people to be looked up to?
It was all some absurd illusory.
Sometimes it really baffles me- the amount of naivety squished into my skull.
How could you do this?
Do you care so little for me?
Everything and everyone I loved so dearly in my childhood
is incurably dead and gone.
I don't know you imposters
You are not the family I remember
My happiness only exists in the remnants of ashes of that old life.
And every single one of you either holds the gasoline or a match in your hands.
