Story of My Life

A Myriad of loving voices echo through my memories Ghosts of those who touched my soul And gifted me their legacies Along the way there has been reckless peril on my stormy seas There was but one who Salvaged me Who saved me from my misery Anchored me and kept me safe and now at last I get to taste The comfort of a warm embrace For now I live without disgrace September 30th 2019 Story of my life contest Sponsor : Silent One
