Ashen Echoes
Bold were we to brand her invincible,
Yet she crumbled like shattered glass in the end.
Did our parents’ failings cast shadows upon her,
Blinding her to the path of resilience?
Her beauty, once ethereal, now a haunting memory,
A grotesque specter lurking in the corners of my mind.
She shunned familial guidance,
While my voice echoed in countless pleas.
An angel once held her close, until his wings charred to black,
A demon draped in deceit, he was , hiding fangs and horns behind lies.
He ravaged my little dove, leaving her ensnared and forsaken to wither.
Her gaze veiled in ash, the chains of bondage rattled.
Prayers and wishes, our futile offerings,
Her heart never bloomed and like a broken woman.
She succumbed to madness, with a bottle and blade,
So In the tub, I found her, life mingling with water.
We prayed and hoped against the odds,
But she was no phoenix, only a creature of ash
