Aware


Out of the smoke and rubble
I rise
away from darkened roads
and twisted minds

forged
into the heat of day
where hot steel pierces
the teeth of a sharpened blade

I hear echoes emerging
from past lessons
a velvetine box of secrets
enticing me to enter
the unknown
where risk creates rewards

there is calm
bare feet landing upon the floor
walking closer
to the open chamber door

time a battle, the end is drawing near
we're standing at attention, aware
