Sacrifice

“Sacrifice”



I believed
I believed in Man

Lucid was my Love
for you
I walked the longest line
for you

I articulated 
the message
with my blood 

drop by drop
you drank my story
I drank you all up

Through the windows
of my soul
I watched you 
from my skies

Did you feel my tears
when I reigned 
down o'er you
I guess some did,
others not

I believe
I believe in Man 

Here is my hand
take it

Those with courage
come take my hand

I believe
I believe in Man

Those with courage
come take my hand

I walked the longest line 
for you

Like Romans laughed
and turned their backs -
Do you think 
I’d turn? 

I’ll keep walking 
towards you -

I won’t turn back

I still impart 
my message
to you 

Sublimely 
amidst the 
majority 

not the few

I believe 

I believe in the 
Love and Light 
in Man

Those with courage
come take my hand

“Look, he is coming with the clouds,”
and “every eye will see him,
even those who pierced him”;
and all peoples on earth “will mourn because of him.” 
Rev 1: 1-7






“It is by faith that poetry,
as well as devotion, 
soars above this dull earth;
that imagination 
breaks through its clouds, 
breathes a purer air, 
and lives in a softer light”. 








“BELIEVE”

Ts Poetry April 11, 2020 at 5:18 AM It all comes down to Faith, Hope, and most of all Love...beauty of a poem Leanne... Happy Easter xx Lady Labyrinth April 11, 2020 at 4:37 PM I'll walk with Courage, everyday, without doubt. I'd ask a lot of questions though, asking for the Truth; perhaps outside of all the stories, the questions would then finally be answered with the Truth . In this poem, Courage = Love. It's not about the bunnies, this time of year, it's about the Lamb. Hope you have a lovely Easter with your family, quality time. xx
