Ash and Ice

In the stillness
Of a silent night
I gaze over this death field,
Covered with ash and ice,
And remember:
The lifeless cocoon
That had not opened
For fear of flying
Into the unknown.
And in the stillness
Of a silent morning
I close my eyes,
Covered with ash and ice,
And remember:
The chaos and apathy
That engulfed this field
As green faded to black and white,
All because of one cocoon.
