Day 321

when did you turn to dust
gently soaring through the air
hiding in the glare of sunlight
and forging a home on every surface

what were you before you were ash
burning on a stone hearth
a remembrance of the unknown
a reminder of the words you've burned

who were you before you were broken
when your dreams still opened your eyes 
and you danced through each day on tiptoes
and broke through the darkest shadows
