Ghost Warriors

Years down the line
A memory takes me on a journey
To a cottage far away.
A light flickers through it's window
To strangers amid the night.

Deep within stone walls
A story let loose,
My mind understanding
The love. Unconditional Love,
Warriors have no tears.

I passed the old town once
This town has no skeletons
Or ghosts that I once knew
Hidden in the shadows
My steps secure.

Taking no refuge
From rain dancing higher
Than the half withered hedge
Staring at molehills, once mountains
A bridge of thoughts in a river ferrying me home

About this poem:
I just let my mind wander to where I was born and what it would be like to go back there. The line I used Warriors have no tears has to do with my mum she hadn't an easy life but she never cried about it just was a true warrior.
