Broken Warrior

Has my futures fate become a victim of my evil past
falling headlong in a spin,tward the day of my death
what god has cursed me that i may suffer so
I have fallen blind to my path and now I am almost alone in my suffering
A large part of me wants to detach from this world,this slow death
I was once held high in the house of the dragon and my spirit soared high with owls wings
But now my wings are broken and I sit with my face to the earth
and one lonely tear to nourish the ground
then only to meet my maker then my taker.

Patrick is right Mark, you are probably going through a bad time right now, but guess what, you've come to the right place - a place where you can unload your troubled heart - and lighten your load in the form of words!!! Welcome Peace Fathima
