///// Nightdwellers 'Beginning Line' Challenge (November 1st) /////
Someone once said ‘A desperate disease requires a dangerous remedy.’ and I think it might have something to do with this month, so to celebrate all your parliamentary revolutions and the fifth’s festivities, here’s a line… ‘I ROLL ASH BETWEEN FINGER AND THUMB’…Tag it #nightdwellers #beginningline, oh the quote was from Guy Fawkes if you was wondering… Get scribbling peeps ;)

Burn Out
I roll ash between finger and thumb.
And breathe our destruction in tar coated lungs.
A spark was ignited.
And we fed the flames.
But you couldn't handle the heat.
And fled in shame and defeat.
Now,
I stand alone in this wasteland,
With soot covered hands,
From digging through the destruction.
Ankle deep in ash,
There is no salvation in these charred remains.
Only pain.
For I knew you couldn't handle the flames.
And I have only my blackened heart to blame.
