My sight finally returns only to see my hands covered with the innocent blood of those I stand before as an example
I hold this ember in my heart it reminds me of who I was once
Ember of Your faithfulness
Ember of Your still small voice
Ember of embracing arms
Ember of rebirth
To You my King I offer up this ember for the wind of Your Spirit to consume
Consumed by fire to purge their blood from my hands.

"Cause I can't fix something this complex anymore than I can build a rose"

I found this to be really nice. I liked the style and topic. Very original from what I'm used to reading around here. I really liked the poem.  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I thought this was very creative.  I really liked the idea... I think you could expand on it a little more, but I really enjoyed this, nonetheless   Nice work, thanks for sharing.
