Ashes

By Gypsie-Ami Offenbacher-Ferris

In response to bwarren’s The Sunday Whirl
Wordle #58

Light from the burning flame
split my world apart
The walls fell around me

Ashes snaked between
a gap forged in my own
numb longing heart

Reaching out I touch
the charred remains of my life
the remnants slip through my fingers
