Ashes.


Phone, in the left hand,

And a smoke in the right.

Having a conversation with someone,

In the middle of a night.

No peace, even when we’re at home,

‘Cause, In order to live,

Every day, we’ve got to win a fight.

For the wounds that we get every day,

Family and their love,

They work as patches.

Maybe, just like that lit smoke,

Our life is, slowly, burning down to ashes.
