![]() Prince of embersA Poem by Brandon Gaetzke![]() A brooding look Into how I felt about myself at a time in my life were I felt no good.![]()
I am the prince of embers. I burn all in my wake. Ashes to ashes is all I take. Brick after brick of pain and toil I form my castle atop the soil. Ash becomes concrete when soaked in tears so it makes the castle sturdy for years. I build and build to keep the beast. So i can stop hurting those i meet. Now its just me and my thoughts inside. Now I realize I'm the beast in the flesh and hide. Now because of my endeavors I sit in my ashen throne the prince of embers.
