Survival

Broken
Left in tatters
All that shatters
All the cliches
I was supposed to die
Supposed to break
Supposed to give up
But brokenness heals
Tattered hearts are patched
One survives if only in pieces
Set back together by time
Scarred but still breathing.

I love this.

"Brokenness heals
Tattered hearts are patched..."

This is so beautiful- succinct and true. I love the fact that you choose to praise the strength of the human spirit, fighting back and, in time, recovering even when we aren't expected to... "Scarred but still breathing."

Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad we heal because if we didn't I doubt I would still be alive.

It's like that even though we no longer have the strength to move forward we have to start from 0 to become ourselves again, excellent reflection ☺

This is awesome, and speaks to me. Picking up the pieces and moving on can be a pita, but we do what we must, as you stated we're "Scarred but still breathing".

Excellent piece, and I enjoyed reading your work.
