Scarred and Scathed



Scarred and scathed, forsaken-

Long estranged, distracted,

Writhing yet surviving

Falling still and striving.

Silent dreams, awaken-

Heart and soul exacted.


Every scar's a tale to tell,

Every wound a lesson learned.

In the tempest, rise and dwell

With faith, to God, I turned.


Iqra Mangi.
