The Battle, the Victory, the Light

The Battle, The Victory, The Light I remember you, great destroyer of heart emerging from darkness to hatefully start Battles taken to wing and skyward bound pain, death and sorrow so, so easily found! No praise ever adorns your so vile name curses your bread , your dark wicked fame Ashes reform to give you such an evil way miseries abound as you cut, slash and slay! Seek no victory over my greatest stand living within truth , my way , my plan I remember well your late night knock rejected, you fled quickly in total shock! I remember you , eater of darkened Souls slayer of dreams with eyes of black coal Fangs sharpened on the sandrock in Hell curses from victims under your dark spell! Slink away, I curse your murdering spirit truth slays you as you try not to hear it I carry the armor of the bright Lord today flee, flee or else dark life you must pay! Sword of Love drawn now in countering you spear of justice gives out your just due A chant of faith sets seal to your fate souls freed, all that your darkness ate! Robert J. Lindley 08-22-2014 Wrote this about 27 years ago.... Rewrote it today and added ten more lines so giving it today's date.. Light utterly destroys darkness. In time, good utterly destroys evil. Man , must understand time yields only to God....
