I
I must empower my courage
And master my strength,
Enlightened by wisdom
I’ll go to the greatest length.
And the lighting spirit
Will channel me towards my iron-will,
I’m a hunter
My eyes are on the kill.
My enemies will not defeat me
And I’ll prevail,
My defiant spirit will triumph
I’m strong as hell.
I must keep my eyes open
And remain constant vigilant,
I must centre myself
To everything that is intelligent.
I will remain strong
And rely on my higher power,
I must shine all my instincts
And I’ll light the darkest hour.
I’m the shaker, I’m the maker
I’m the one, who you must fear,
I’m alone but I’m the power of one,
Loud and clear.
(C) Obaidur Rahman. Published in the poet’s debut book of English poetry titled “The Mystic Inferno” in 2012.
