I'm the Keeper

Poetry

By Roxy WolfPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

I’m the keeper of broken things

the collector of the discarded

I see the beauty in the shattered

the disformed

the ugly

I’m the keeper of broken things

the guidance through the dark

I see the hope in the abandoned

the hurt

the scarred

I’m the keeper of broken things

the solace in the depths

I see the light in the lost

the forgotten

the silent

I’m the keeper of broken things

the calm in the middle of the storm

I see when they have tried to blind me

I’m still here when they’ve tried to destroy me

I still fight even though they’ve wounded me

I pick up the pieces when they try to shatter me

I was forged in fire

sword drawn, I charge into battle

I am the keeper of broken things

but you

You and this world…

will never break me
