Pain wakes me nightly
Cold breath lingering
Shadows press inward
Heart beats heavier
Silence becomes company
Grief shapes mornings
Memories cut deep
Hope feels distant
I walk hurting
Steps drag slow
Days blur together
Nights burn louder
Still I rise
Broken but breathing
Carrying quiet strength
Holding fragile light
Living in pain
Is still living
Even shattered souls
Learn stubborn survival

Life is a strong motivator as is pain but survival wins out. A poem of carrying on. Well done my friend.
