Burn to Ash

I stand motionless, watching my world
Burn to the ground. Darkness surrounds. I scream, no sound can be found. Ashes from this mess all around. Have to confess I caused this wreck, set fire to my success, any progress I made...I set to flame. No one but me to blame. All that remains is deep shame. never thought it would all fall, It once stood tall...the first rumble caused a few walls to crumble. Thought I could fix it but like an infection, it grew, making its way through, chewing at the glue, destroying every screw that held it altogether. By the time I got a good view at the destruction didn’t know how to undo, believed it to be untrue. Call me naive, All that I achieved, I now stand and grieve. Fuck, this wasn’t what I planned, just let things get outta hand, until there was nothing left but charred land.
