Rise

By lstdarkness

 
My life has collapsed.
The pillars of my soul,
have fallen in on themselves.
The dust of my remains cloud,
the stars from view.
 
The stars are hidden.
How will my soul find it’s way,
lost in the nothing?
Wondering for eternity,
until it finds it’s home.
 
The dust settles.
I coats my lifeless body,
a blanket of cold.
The star’s light shines,
on my glazed dead eyes.
 
The pain washes away.
The light warms my,
my cold body.
Breathe forces it’s way
inside my lungs.
 
 
I gasp and stand.
I rise again for the,
next person to destroy.
I rise a new stronger,
you can not destroy what,
I am.

    Ahhh, now I see. Funny how two little words just snapped the crux in place for me.

    The end was either very profound, or unfinished. I can't tell from here. I found this interesting.
