Freedom

Love

Flying free
Away from here
My love branded me
Now nothing to fear
Nothing to lose
Everything's gone
All I have left
Is a new song

Now I'm free to fly
Away from here
No hold over me
Not one tear
My body is burned
By death of passion
Now all alone
Demise my ration
My ashes will fly
On the wings of the breeze
And you'll remember my love
In the whispers of the trees
For though I am free
I'm not leaving, hear?
And the remembrance of me
Will haunt you my dear

This freedom...; is it free?
Or is it just my apathy
Chilling the coals that once burned
Before your ice did make them turn
Now ashes are all thats left of my love
Look down on me good God above!
See the pain that's slit open my veins
See all the tears that are hidden in rains
See how my dreams were dashed on what's real
See how loving of death I now feel
And all the while I can see her grinning
This I know: Death is just the beginning
So again I ask, Is freedom free
Or is it just a wish for me?

Who knew I could make ashes from cinders?
Who knew that Snow could be made of heat?
Who knew that always doesn't mean forever?
Who knew that my loss could make me complete?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is a remake of "Free" for ashes_twisted, and is open to change. Enjoy

Wow....I'd definitely say

Wow....I'd definitely say this holds the power of emotion. I felt every line and every pain. Beautiful.

Such Force...

You have crammed my mouth shut with these words:

"Chilling the coals that once burned
Before your ice made them turn
Now ashes are all that left of my love
Look down on me good God above
See the pain that's slit open my veins
See all the tears hidden in rains
See how my dreams were dashed on what's real
See how loving of death I now feel
And all the while I can see her grinning
This I know: Death is just the beginning.."

You made me convulse for air,
and now I am left here before you quivering..

Now this I love.
I liked how you put this before the ending, and it flows so nicely to me.
Just wow..

I can taste now what you were feeling, and it affected me.
That is what I was looking for Seraphim..
An emotion, and by GAWD! you hit it on the mark. <3
Great job lovely.
