Surrounded by Ash
Just when i thought
i was happy
you show up
with those big smiles
and bright eyes
full of hope
curiosity
it breaks me
leaving me in a heap
of rumble at your feet
i loose all since of direction
because the mirror in my eyes starts
to fog
do you even realize
i'm nothing but metal
made only for others special needs
what you see you cannot have
because i'm not programmed to care
to love
i'm only programmed to wait
and watch as the world around us turns to ash
from the fire our hearts evoke
if only i could breathe fire and melt the
coldness from my soul.
