Destroyed

It emerged from twilight 

Nothing seemed to matter at that time 

Numbness was no longer a stranger 

And debauchery was a welcome friend 

No expectations, no disappointments 

Heart was guarded 

Heart was safe

Heart felt no emotions 

It emerged at dawn 

No one saw it coming 

No one expected it to be that big

And the aftermath 

A story unfolding 

It was a joy ride

Belief was restored 

She was a gift 

But she kept giving 

And he couldn't understand 

He had his fill

His heart was caving in

He had to survive 

It emerged after dusk 

Ashes 

Memories 

Friends turned foes 

Heroes turned villains 

Motives seen in all actions 

Even those innocent acts 

All questioned

What did it all mean?

The answers were simple 

It was all destroyed 

No rise of the Phoenix 

No come back

No redemption
