Jack of Spades

Jack of spades (intro) Fear not the dark queen skies The red crimson, tears of lies Fear not what you’ve been told For your soul has not been sold (bridge) You are free from all these chains You alone make these restrains... (ref) Take the leap into the unknown, to discover you’re not alone Take a glimpse inside the light, the super nova burning bright So unleash what you have learned and drink the chalice that you’ve yearned Succumb to all of your desires whilst your enemies transpire. (ref) Now that you’re on the peak, no one will dare to speak Now your crown has been reforged, so lead well and don’t diverge As this oath you thou shall keep, never look back never retreat Keep these principals in your mind, as the stars are re aligned (chorus) From jack to king you have become Deciding faiths with a flick of thumb From jack to king you are reborn Once a servant now adorned

Thanks for reading my simple verse ,and welcome to poetrysoup.This is an outstanding lyric poem..I can almost hear the music in the background.The poem has a beautiful message,It seems that after all the effort and work,the servant was crowned king,and all He needs is to always remember to reign as a king with the humbleness of a servant and all will be well.Tnks for sharing your verse- Charma
