What It Took
War
Takes everything from a person
Safety
Loved ones
HomeIt strips you bare
Leaves you hollow, echoing
AloneWatching your home fall in pieces
And all you can do is scream
Watching loved ones slip away
And all you can do is cryWatching and watching
Feeling and feelingIt takes everything:
Your sense of safety
Your family
The shattered shape of your lifeYet somehow
We still breathe
We mourn. We rise.
We survive.Subscribe  or  log in to reply
Yasmina, I am so sorry what you and our world are going through and I so admire your strength. You are a light in this world. And your poetry will continue to spread that light. Thank you for sharing and thank you for being part of The Unsealed. <3 Lauren
