TEARS OF WAR

Shrouded in mystery, forgotten,
Inventory taken, history,
From the shadows, atrociously
Karma emerged, consciously,
Knocked open, courageously,

Matter how deep, the darkness,
No night ends, dawn breaks,
Nothing settled, viper rattled,
Abilities underestimated, never breaks,
Strong heart, bereft battled,

Darkly clouded, ray of light,
The light of dawn, soldier emerges,
Surged the veins, worried images,
Raveging bones, phoenix arises,
Taunted past, all torn pieces.
