Survivor

A road winding. Destination unknown. Dust covers the path. Concealing the pavement. Air here is heavy. Dry smell if desolation fills my nose. Memories elude me. Thoughts begin to jumble. My eyes ache from the sun. Every muscle cries in pain. Beatin and bruised. I am left here alone.

Wind has pierced my skin. Exposing mangled flesh. Revealing my very soul. Destruction breeds devastation. Demons have claimed my core. In this moment. I feel defeated. 

Now here i stand . frozen in fear. Looking down at my hands.... I see scars. Symbolizing a fight. My heart beats fiercely. My chest pounds with each breath. I have survived. I am still in the battle. To concede is not a choice. Giving up is not an option. I am a fighter. It sears thru my veins. This victory..... Is mine.
