"They can say whatever they want about you, but they can never break you. Only you can break you."


They said there was a really bad wreck.
No one survived, but no one knew how many
bodies were found.
As far as anyone knew, Denmark’s royal family
had disappeared one night eight years ago
and haven’t been heard from since.

The aromatic melody of the piano
entwines with the sweet voice of the young
boy who was playing it.
He knows who he is, but to the world
he and his twin are ghosts.

The glory days are gone; they spend their
days on the streets, because fragments of the past
don’t have a home, and wander missing the
security of lives past.

This poem is based on the back story for a pair of characters in a story I’m writing.
