Walk Alone

Walking along this empty and chaotic road
with footsteps echoing through our once
wayward soul that want to leave us
shuddering in fearful doubt.

With every ragged breath comes another
murky bend plagued by lurking demons.
The path ahead appears a distant mirage
and yesterday’s shadows shriek from behind.

But I do not walk alone.

So thirsty is the mind, desperate to nourish
the healing host with a single drop from
the reservoir of peace and prayer,
to overfill the warrior’s heart for each
fighting step ahead.

Wing to wing,
shield to shield,
heart to heart,
we forge the way. 

These are our toughest battles,
but we do not walk alone.
make me forget
how to breathe

leave me with the
taste of your sin
they will lie about you, insult you, hurt you,
betray you, injure  you, set you aflame and
watch you burn. but they will not, shall not,
c a n n o t, destroy  you. because  you, like
R o m e, were built  on ashes, and you, like
a phoenix, know how to rise and resurrect.
