Fragile body
Fragile pieces of a former whole
Put together by lessons learned
Weaving a spell in which to hold
All the pieces in the warmth as one

Broken mind
Broken thoughts that used to shape
A form and direction
About each, the other would drape
Themselves in mutual polarity

Tortured soul
Tortured wings that fly no more
Bearing no resemblance to those which
Flew so proudly before,
Now burned by the envious sun

Changed forevermore

I love the whole poem but really identify with these lines. Being forever changed isn't always a bad thing... but somehow, it seems to involve pain more often than elation.

Fantastic work, my friend!!
