Alone, Yet Unbroken"

"Walking Through Shadows, Fighting the Flames"

By KalixPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

We were born on the battlefield, no regrets for what comes and goes.

We live in the wild, thorns may hurt, but pain is never the end.

In the dark, even your shadow leaves your side,

Then you’ll see you are your only guide.

Loneliness burns till the fire fades,

We wait on the shore, as the ship delays.

Even if volcanoes rise, we’ll stand and fight,

Face the flames, embrace the night.

At the world's edge, we stand and stare,

Life’s a play we act our share.

New faces we wear, new turns we take,

At story’s end, we choose our fate.

Shall we begin again… or let it fade?
