Edging Out the Night

All of my words are spent It was words who rent…my soul I have used them to bleed, need, plead My case before those who judge, forcefully nudge, but never budge in the presence of undying LOVE No more…NO….MORE…. I will not take one more step, I will not move beyond My humiliation Is there no one to lift my head A Prince, perhaps… Stupid little girl, get a grip, take a tasty sip, maybe pooch your lip… Faith, love, and hope I have lifted my sword before I have escaped darkness and know bondage no more But live, to actually breathe in those three Take hold of those powerful sources inside me Requires great courage…of which…I have none I thought I was a woman of light A ray of hope piercing evil I find myself lost in the mesh Of all that is unbelievable Wild, untouchable, undesirable My heart is HIS And I smile as I know what that means I am not my own And so, His blood has washed me clean And I will know this sorrow NO MORE….

It's all in who you chose to give your power of choice to.
