the fire

Embers breathe heat onto flames.
Fire gobbles up framed memories and written thoughts.
The roof caves in and beams collapse on concrete that was thought to withstand nuclear disaster.
And then it was over.
And my face was burnt beyond recognition.
And I was scarred by a thousand shards of glass slicing through me like shrapnel
when every window exploded-
when my life imploded.
Now every room is black and gaping.
It's been two years since the fire, since Daddy was found to be a liar.
A life cannot be rebuilt from ashes.
