Double-edged Sword

Blood drips down both edges

of my sword. I have traveled

to the source of the pain –

through dangerous memories.

I have battled and fought

every demon in my path.

Scratches deep like the past

cover my battered body. Mud

rubbed into my skin. I found

salvation walking on new ground.

I made it out after I found myself.

I put away my double-edged sword

and gave thanks to day and night.

I know darkness comes before light.
