Stormborn

Arson before subtlety

Lit the match

and haven't looked back.

Ashes and bones

fire and flames

to better punctuate

a loss that feels more

like freedom.

Sometimes letting go

looks like losing hope.

Sometimes surrender

looks like giving up, 

as long as it's the ghost

from which you can no longer

run away.

Breathe honesty into today.

Time served.

Lesson learned.
