Awakening
Write a poem about an awakening - it could be literal or metaphorical.
Seventeen Month Away
Seventeen months — I walked alone,
Through echoes of my past unknown.
Wounds carved deep by lessons learned,
In history’s fire, I crashed and burned.
I faded into silence, into grace,
Tried to heal in time and space.
But passion never truly dies,
It only sleeps behind the eyes.
Then came the night — the lights, the roar,
A feeling I had missed before.
I made my return, heart on display,
To a WWE event — my healing stage.
Not just a fan in seat or row,
But a soul revived from long ago.
My scars now inked with strength I’ve earned,
For after the pain… I have returned.
