Forsaken Ll

I am restored,

                                                nothing more to break.

                                               Even through my division,

                                                 nothing more to move.

                                             As I rise, through the ashes,

                                              this whole world must fade.


                                            For these are the words i cry.

    
                                                       I will take back,

                                                      all that is mine.

                                              My passion will be my bond,

                                                no more will I live in flesh.

                                                  I will be forever faithful,

                                                     with no more fear.

                                                   No more wasted days,

                                                      and I will not be
                                                        
                                                           forsaken.

Gwendolen Song Date: 12/16/2011 6:22:00 PM Howdy, JA....I like the spirit of resolution at the beginning of your poem...then you narrow your focus to reclaim your prize...tunnel vision is a powerful weapon in battle..so many get distracted and lose their focus only to be weakened for the fight. No more wasted days....YOU will NOT be FORSAKEN! I say Roses and Sparking grape juice for her tonite!! lol. Much enjoyed this victorious write! Login to Reply

Elizabeth Wesley Date: 12/16/2011 9:26:00 AM Won't it be wonderful when the flesh with all its weakness is done away with. The spirit body will indeed, never waste days. So beautifully you bring these truths in such gentle ways. I alway feel like I'm being led by your words instead of pushed. Hugs to you John and I'm so grateful for your encouragement.
