Ashes 2

I let you taste my fire, thought you’d never burn,

Now your name’s a lesson that I had to learn.

You played me like a whisper, left me on replay,

But I’m dancing in the ruins of the mess you made.

No more chains, no more ghosts, no more silent screams,

I’m taking back the nights, I’m owning all my dreams.

Rising from the ashes with a spark in my chest,

Your memory can’t touch me, I’m better than the rest.

You tried to cage me, break me, leave me undone,

But I’m wildfire in the dark,

I’m the only one.

You called me dangerous, you called me wild,

Funny, I’m still standing, sharper than your lies.

Bruises fade, scars gleam, I’m rewriting the script,

Every cut you left is a crown I now lift.

I don’t miss your hands, your whispers, your games,

Your softest touch burned me, but I’ve learned your flames.

I rise through the chaos, through the smoke, through the pain,

Every heartbreak you left becomes fuel for my flame.

You thought I’d crumble, thought I’d stay undone,

But I’m neon in the night,

I’ve already won.

I used to whisper your name like it was a prayer,

Now I kiss who I want, no fear, no care.

Pain became my power, heartbreak my art,

Every shard you left just sharpened my heart.

I rise higher, brighter, nothing left to hide,

Your ashes can’t follow me, I’m alive inside.

You bruised me, broke me, but I’ve begun,

I’m the phoenix reborn,

I shine like the sun.
