Fire

Windows catching
on the brink
pitter, patter
pitter, patter
dripping in the sink
Glazed smoke
hides the charr

reveal the scar
Doors banging
opening to none
creak, crash
creak, crash
this place is done.

This was inspired by my ex-fiance's house burning down last week. I was sad to hear about it. It was my home for three years. I was sad to lose some of my own items that I hadn't been able to recover yet. I was also sad for him and his girlfriend and baby that they lost everything they had. Also, thankful that I was not still there, for I would have lost everything. I don't think I could handle that.
