Ashes of Me

It didn't feel like the end of the day

But the end of the whole wide world

When it bruised so deep

Even words lost their way,

Falling silent

Where echoes once curled.

And all that remained

Were ashes of me

Scattered thoughts

That used to believe

Someone out there

Would gather them in a jar

And pour them gently

Into the sea.

But no hands reached,

No eyes turned near.

It turns out

No one cared enough

To hear.
