Not Broken

I walk alone through streets that don't remember me

Lost voices echo from places I once called home

The weight of silence presses down heavy and true

I carry memories like stones each one a story

The nights grow longer stretching thin into dawn

With no promises no stars to guide me through

I search for pieces of myself scattered like ash

Learning to breathe in the dust of what was

I am fire I am dust

Not broken but born from the ashes
