Old Poem
Broken, defeated
Left on the battlefield
I’ve conceded.
Ruined, destroyed
I haven’t the strength to rise
Will you leave me here to fight alone?
Are you strong enough to be the heart for both of us?
In order to heal I must face my fear,
Work past the pain and learn to trust again.
Cease to hide in darkness, to walk boldly in the sun.
