I am here and still alive--Thank you all for all your kindness and love--You make my days more bearable--I will post more soon and I apologize for my neglect and will visit all of you soon as well...And just because here's something I just wrote...




Defy or Die

As I stand amongst the carnage of the demons who hunt me still
I can take solace in this brief moment of respite and wonder that I have survived these wounds as the shadowmonsters hunt what they have yet to kill

Smoke and soot turn black the lines that crease my face
And sweat clings to my body in a wet sheen a testament to the chase
And in the dark I once again hear their howls and my feet take flight once more
A battlefield I run alone and far from home,but it is home that fuels the fire of my core

My strides run in tune with the thumping of my heart a rhythm of life
The sum of my fears bile in the back of my throat that I cannot swallow
And in every breathe I gulp it is one more second that is mine,a lifetime lived
In each moment,another memory that defines me,another moment denying the strife that has hounded my dreams
And for every step I take I hear the screams
The screams of rage that I still resist

I will not go
I will not cave
I am alive
The gleam in my eyes defiant
To the end
To the end
And beyond
