Alone

I've lived in a shadow that lifted me from darkness

Placed under the withering heat of Helios chariot in a barren land

Striped and blasted by the wind driven sands of time

My broken heart has healed me.

Sticks broken and redoubled grow stronger with each break

A scar is tougher that the skin it replaced

My concrete legs, still wet, will not bear my burden

Of empty casks from abandoned harvests

Under Anubis' falling curtain

I loved the below lines Soren.
"My broken heart has healed me.

The above lines. Old man wisdom and I love it. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry. I did like this one.

Thank you Coyote for your most kind words. Pain is part of experience we should learn from. The old saying "whatever doesn't kill you will make you stronger".
