Battle Weary - Tiles

Walking on the cobblestones

Up a gentle slope

Shadows dance & ghosts appear

Challenging my strength

Leaving and exile self-imposed

Dragging my burdens that won’t let go

I had disappeared

Sitting in the sun

Senses numb to sight & sound

With nowhere I could run

Leaving an exile self-imposed

Dragging my burdens that won’t let go

Battle weary — I bury my regret

Battle weary — remember to forget
