Ashes

The sky like ink
and the stars like eyes
Searching the earth,
searching the land
for me
the single spark
on the cold, hard earth.

The smoking metal
and the ashes
only serve as a
reminder.
A painful
terrible
hurting
reminder
of what I did.
Of what I did that night.
Of what I did that night to my own mother.
And I look up to the night sky
yearning
stretching
reaching
to get away,
to run, run, run away
from all the hurt
and smoke
and flames
and ashes.
 
Ashes are all that is left of me now.
 
 
 
Was it too sad? Choppy? Weird? Leave me comments please! I made this up on the spot so it may not be as good as I wanted it to be...
 
(P.S. Does this count as a fanfic since it is based on Leo Valdez's mom dying?)
