A Soul Awakened

This battle brews inside me The pain I feel in my heart ripping it apart And my soul who wants to be redeemed The movement of my pen beats in my chest In my veins my words flow like the rage of rivers in storm I’m caught in these lyrics that Awaken my soul That cry out for eternity Yet my heart is trodden at times I swear it is not beating Our hearts rose up like kindred knights ready to defend our land but the soul was fulfilling its destiny it would not be beaten, no matter… it had awakened to truth but our hearts knew only torment and could not understand all that was happening, that God had a plan so my pain exposes itself in my thoughts manifesting to script as it beats in my chest with a rhythmic pulse that brings me to my knees We had no time to prepare Only to fight Flailing around Hope With all of our might as if it were the weapon that would save us from our enemy for that’s all we had was our sword of Hope This battle we were not prepared for. Like a sneak attack, it caught us in slumber when the army of death ascended upon our world my heart said I love you you are my universe and life has no meaning without you I will fight till my shallow breath abates Till your soul takes the last blow... And I did! We Did! We did not surrender We had no chance Our hearts fought a losing battle My awakened soul shouts out with acceptance… “you will one day know the reason, but not now” For this is your time to experience what was lovingly bestowed upon you from our God, who knows what we need So now I write from my pain… It helps me to cope… It is the sword I carry… My only Hope
