One day in our living room
I caught the smell of incense
My eyes met with the flame
Engulfed in tears that
Heaviness of the weight it carried on me as death carries into the next life
Who knew I would be the one holding the torch to light
To burn all the remorse I had
The ashes were soon to be what we had
Dismantled and unprepared
Perished
I lit another in that same room we kept our thoughts
Seemed to burn through the voices that sat behind my ears
One day in the living room
Death came upon me in four minutes
