Undisclosed

The heat abated

Respite to a sweat soaked soul

Sitting in the shade

The pain subsided

Despite the growing body of scars

How, again were they made?

Self inflicted or attack?

Undisclosed

The heat abated

Despite the evidence of fires

Embers in the wind

The pain subsides

Respite for the unending strife

Beginning to feel the end

Of the pain, or of life?

Undisclosed
