Dust in the wind

Location

Dead diary 
 
I feel damaged.. 
Frail; a burnt piece of paper.. 
Brittle, wounded edges.. 
As if I'd crumble to the touch or slight breeze.. 
Resist or let it sweep me away?
Becoming nothing but ashes in the wind 
Some would only see the deepened gray of my specks; dust 
Others may find beauty in my reflection of the stale sun; glitter
What would I make of life then?
Free without restraints..
