renewal

I escaped the clutch of Raven's claws
Eluded Hounds of Hell
Struck down threats from above
Gutted the Wolf with one blow

Faced both men and witches
Fought forces beyond this realm
Known great sorrow and great joy
Felt defeat and victory

I opened up my veins
Washed the darkness out
Poured cleansing in the pain
Set free by Fire and Water

Feet firm upon the Earth
Spirit swept into the Wind
Carried by unseen Hands
To a place beyond the Stars

[Gypsy Warrior Queen]

I opened up my veins
Washed the darkness out
Poured cleansing in the pain
Set free by Fire and Water...

I've been through these doors and remember the thoughts so clearly sitting here reading out loud this magic that you pen.I am groggy this morning &my coffee needs more fire .. my sights still full with lake..I shall be return soon

life is often survival...and this kind of persistence in both defeat and victory, will surely help one survive.

whatever is thrown at me...i can take it...and in the end i will make it...constant renewal of purpose.

like this poem...a nice tight piece.

Its a new day, clean clean, it's a new way dream dream, tomorrow is new again, the past is forever gone, there's a new sway to this day I felt it all day long. :) I am so glad to see you posting poems again Icarios13 :) it's a beauty for sure, perfect.
